Firms Reported to Have Commercial Activity in the Iranian Energy Sector and U.S. Government Contracts

Abstract

Our March 2010 report and this report are intended to support congressional consideration of U.S. sanctions against Iran, including proposed legislation to expand the Iran Sanctions Act (ISA). We did not use ISA criteria or monetary thresholds when identifying firms and did not attempt to determine whether firms meet the legal criteria for an investment specified in ISA.3 Under the existing Iran Sanctions Act, persons, including firms, that invest more than $20 million in Irans energy sector in any 12-month period may be banned from U.S. government procurement.
