The United States President Joe Biden has cautioned Israel not to attack Iran's oil fields while acknowledging its right to respond on Friday, October 4. Biden said that the attack on Iran's oil fields might disrupt global markets.
There are a total of 70 oil fields in Iran, according to the IranOilGas Network's database.
According to its website, established in 2000, IranOilGas Network is the leading independent Iranian oil, gas, and petrochemical information network, providing a variety of consultancy and information services.
The first major oil field in Iran is Ahvaz Field, the largest with 65 billion barrels of total oil reserves, including cumulative past production. The oil field went into production in 1954, and it produces 750,000 barrels per day.
Gachsaran Field is Iran's second-largest oil field, with 52.9 billion barrels of total oil reserves, including cumulative past production. It has been in operation since 1930 and produces 560,000 barrels per day.
Aghajari Field is another major oil field in Iran with a complex geological structure. It produces 440,000 barrels per day.
Marun Field is another major oil field in the country. It has been operational since 1965 and produces 520,000 barrels per day.
Karanj Oil Field is another important oil field in Iran. It produces 200,000 barrels per day and has been in operation since 1964.
Iran is one of the founding members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). In addition to petroleum, Iran's other natural resources include natural gas, coal, chromium, copper, iron ore, lead, manganese, zinc, and sulphur, according to the OPEC website.
According to OPEC data, Iran's petroleum exports are valued at $41,129 million, and the country has nearly 208,600 million barrels of proven oil reserves.
