NIORDC distributing 260 ml/d of oil products
TEHRAN Dec 21 (Shana): 260 million liters of oil products are distributed across the country on a daily basis, of which 135 million liters are delivered to power plants, managing director of National Iranian Oil Products Distribution Company (NIOPDC), Mostafa Kashkoulisaid.
He added the other main destination for delivery of oil products is cold and mountainous areas of the country where the residents have no access to natural gas grid.


Last week, iranaian minister of petroleum Bijan Zanganeh said that if people save gas consumption, the county will face no problem in winter in view of meeting gas needs.


Over the recent months, several meetings have been held to review the situation of gas supply, the level of gas storage, and gas consumption by different sectors including residential, commercial and industrial sectors in a bid to lay the groundwork for supplying adequate gas in winter.

Round the clock efforts for launching at least one train at phases 15&16 of South Pars gas field and part of phase 12 are among the other efforts being underway to raise gas supply in winter.



Meanwhile managing director of National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC) asked people to take saving gas consumption serious. Gas consumption rose significantly last week due to cold weather which raised gas consumption to 415 mcm in residential and commercial areas.


It is forecasted gas consumption rise to more than 700 mcm/d in the cold days of winter. Switching power plants fuel consumption from natural gas to fuel oil as well as gas draw form Serajeh gas storage facility are the other ways for supplying adequate gas in winter.
