"The U.S. State Department said Friday it welcomed a decision by Italian  company Edison International SpA to withdraw from Iran’s energy sector. Edison withdrew from its contract to explore Iran’s Dayyer natural gas field, the State Department said, and it pledged not to engage in activity with Iran in the future that is subject to U.S. sanctions. The State Department said, as a result of the company’s decision, it granted a 'special rule' under the Iran Sanctions Act to Edison that says the company will not be subject to an investigation into past Iran-based activities, so long as it lives up to the assurances it gave to the U.S. government. 'We commend the commitments made by Edison International, and we hope that other firms will follow its lead,' said State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland in a statement . . . Edison is the sixth company, the State Department said, to withdraw its investment in Iran under the special rule provision of the Iran Sanctions Act, joining Italy’s Eni SpA, Norway’s Statoil ASA, France’s Total SA, Japan’s Inpex Corp. and Royal Dutch Shell PLC in doing so."
