MOSCOW (Sputnik) — According to Shana News Agency, it is expected that the parties will set up joint ventures to finance projects both in Iran and outside the country.

Each company will allocate equal investment shares in the jointly financed projects, with Iran's Ghadir Exploration and Production Company in charge of leading the consortium. Zarubezhneft, Ghadir and Unit International also agreed on joining technical and economic efforts, the news outlet reported.
