The country’s oil export revenue fell to $26bn last year from $37bn in 2015, the US Energy Information Administration said in its OPEC Revenues Fact Sheet.

The statistical arm of the US Department of Energy estimated that members of the OPEC earned about $433bn in net oil export revenue (unadjusted for inflation) in 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
