More than seven decades have passed since the historic nationalization of the country\u2019s oil industry. Yet today, these enormous natural resources have not translated into public prosperity. Instead, they have become part of a deep structural crisis within Iran\u2019s energy economy.\u00a0The core of the problem extends beyond sanctions or poor management. At its root lies the political and economic structure of the system dominated by the\u00a0<em>Velayat-e Faqih<\/em>, which has removed control over national resources from public oversight and concentrated it within powerful state and military networks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A review of the oil industry\u2019s trajectory over the past four decades reveals a striking gap between potential capacity and sustainable production.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1979, the year of Iran\u2019s revolution, the country produced roughly 5.7 million barrels of crude oil per day.
