Used to be when OPEC spare capacity got down to 3 or 4 million barrels WTI would rise and hold firm. Right now OPEC spare capacity is 1.6 million which will soon get immediately used up.

it does appear Iran nuclear deal will be done with all the meetings in the past few days betwen Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabis and EU,
Iran has tons of barrel of oil on tankers that can flood the oil market. I guess we will see the reaction to renewed hope of Iran nuke deal tomrrow.
Seeing that the G7 has had only limited success in sanctionoing Russian crude, it seems the situation has probably been similar for Iranian crude (and Venezuelan at that )
More likely is that the power of sanctions has been to stifle Capex ,meaning there will be few increases going forward until the necessary time has elapsed upon restoration of capex (at least a year ,probably more )
