Iran joins OPEC in boosting oil output despite initial reluctance
Iran announced it would increase oil production to align with an OPEC board decision to raise crude supply by about 6.3 percent, a move aimed at preventing loss of market share. Iranian official Hossein Kazempour Ardebili said Iran would take its share from the current agreement and wait to assess impacts on prices. Analysts noted the rise would not significantly lower U.S. gasoline costs, which are already high, and predicted only modest pressure relief for consumers this summer.
