Iran doesn’t have 4 months of anything. They will need to cap wells. When you cap a well a percentage will not come back. Plus it’s very expensive. They don’t have the equipment to run around and cap all wells in 10 days. Do they have 30 days. Maybe. They will have economically collapsed long before 4 months. They will start spilling oil if they can’t shut down.
