Oil pricecompetition in Europe is set to intensify when Iranian crude returns to themarket after sanctions on its nuclear program are lifted, the InternationalEnergy Agency said.

Europe willbe the battleground between producers of sour crude grades, including Russia,Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Iran, as the Asian market becomes more “crowded,” theParis-based IEA said in its monthly report.

Iraq, thesecond largest oil producer in the Organization of Petroleum ExportingCountries, has increased its market share in Europe after the imposition ofsanctions on Tehran resulted in the collapse of Iranian exports, the IEA said.Iraq sold 1 million barrels a day to Europe in July and August, overtakingSaudi Arabia, according to the IEA.

Europeimports over 9 million barrels a day of crude from outside the region, withsour grades accounting for two-thirds of that, according to the IEA.

“By targetingIran’s former buyers, Iraq — with its fast growing exports — has managed toincrease significantly its European customer base,” the agency said.

Iraq’s gainsin Europe have also come as Saudi Arabia has pushed its barrels into newterritories in the region. Saudi Arabia sold crude to a Swedish refiner for thefirst time in 20 years earlier this month and has also made headway in Poland.Both countries have traditionally bought their crude from Russia. Saudi Arabia,the biggest oil producer in OPEC, also cut official selling prices for allgrades to northwest Europe and the Mediterranean earlier this month.

Iran Buyers

Despite thesegains for Iraq and Saudi Arabia in the continent, Iran is “keen to reclaim” itsmarket share, the IEA said. Sanctions on its nuclear program are widelyexpected to be lifted next year following a deal agreed with world powers inJuly.

“Tehran hasalready lined up buyers in Europe,” the IEA said, citing unidentified Iranianindustry people. The nation’s crude would typically compete with that fromSaudi Arabia, Iraq and Russia, the IEA said.
