Bessent Says Iran Faces Week Without Oil Shipments or Revenue
Automated summary•3 October 2026 at 13:54
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Iran would have no oil shipments at sea this week and would receive no revenue from them.
Bessent linked that outlook to what he described as “unprecedented” US economic isolation of Iran.
His remarks focused on oil shipments during the week, rather than on Iran’s production levels or its broader economic activity.
The statement presented the expected loss of shipment revenue as a result of US pressure, but did not provide figures for the income Iran would otherwise have received.
