from Iran in February fell 19.1% from the previous

 Data from the Ministry of Economy and Trade of Japan, on Friday, that Japan's imports of crude oil from Iran in February fell 32.3% from a year ago to reach 214,268 barrels per day.

The ministry said oil imports from Iran in February fell 19.1% from the previous month.

The data released by the Japanese Ministry of Finance "Thursday" has indicated that imports of Iranian crude oil, which crossed the customs increased by 15.9% in February from a year earlier, marking the highest level in 11 months.

It is likely that most of the increase was due to the rules to allow Japanese refiners to postpone the customs clearance for the purchases.

And Japan imports declined from Iranian oil steadily last year, with the imposition of the United States and the European Union strict sanctions on Tehran over its controversial nuclear.

And receive data from the Ministry of Commerce to pursue more of the oil industry; they monitor the actual situation for crude carriers.
