I've heard it said that Iran will soon run out of space to store the oil that they're unable to ship. And I've heard that when that happens they'll have to shut down the wells and that when that happens the well is pretty much destroyed.
I'm not expert so I can't be sure that it's true but if it is that would present a catastrophic problem for Iran.

I have heard the same, but I do not know if it is true. If it were catastrophic to shut down the wells, they could simply pump the oil into a pit or into the ocean, or pump it into a reserve ( if they have one) like the US strategic reserve.
