VIENNA--The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries should comply with its agreed production ceiling, Iran's oil minister said Wednesday but Iran has no plans to cut its own production.

Speaking to reporters as he arrived for Thursday's OPEC meeting in Vienna to decide on output, Bijan Zanganeh said "it's very clear. OPEC decides to comply not to" breach its ceiling.

The oil producers' group is currently considering a proposal to abide by a ceiling of 30 million barrels a day agreed in 2011--implying a production cut of 300,000 barrels a day from October levels.

Mr. Zanganeh didn't say what position Iran would support at the meeting but said experts concurred that a current oversupply in oil markets is expected to grow next year.
