Daily Raw Gas Output in Iran Rises Significantly
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Iranian oil minister boasted about his ministry’s success in increasing the production of unprocessed natural gas after identifying the bottlenecks.
Addressing a parliamentary session on Tuesday, Mohsen Paknejad said the Oil Ministry has successfully identified bottlenecks in the upstream sector of the petroleum industry after the Iranian administration took office in August.
After extensive planning, the Oil Ministry managed to increase the average daily production of raw gas by over 25 million cubic meters, he said.
The minister also noted that the daily production of Mazut (heavy fuel oil) and diesel fuel in the oil refineries has risen by around 5 million liters to ensure a steady supply to the power plants.
