Progress Elusive as Nuclear Talks Restart: Iran Snapshot

Here is a snapshot of what's happening with Iran, its nuclear talks and energy markets.

Latest developments

Talks to revive the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and world powers will restart on Monday, according to Russia's envoy. While Iran says “relatively good” progress has been made, negotiations to resurrect the deal have been moving toward a state of limbo, forcing diplomats to contemplate outcomes that fall short of fully reviving the accord.

A seventh round of talks ended inconclusively on Dec. 17. U.S. and European envoys warn time's running out to revive the agreement that curbed Iran's nuclear work in return for an easing of sanctions, including on oil exports. 

Whether Iran returns to global oil markets is one of the biggest uncertainties for energy traders in 2022.

Futures in New York advanced toward $76 a barrel in Asian trading after sliding 2.3% on Friday. Libyan output is expected to decline to the lowest level in more than a year as workers try and fix a damaged pipeline less than two weeks after militias shut down its biggest field. The OPEC+ alliance is set to agree to an increase in production next month, a Bloomberg survey shows.
