Iran to increase gasoline output to 100m liters per day

IRNA Iran will increase its gasoline output to 100 million liters per day, Oil Minister Bijan Zangeneh said.


In the near future, the third phase of Setareh Khalij Fars Refinery will come into stream; therefore, the volume of oil production will rise to 100 million liters per day, Zangeneh said.

He noted that the nominal capacity of the third phase of Setareh Khalij Fars Refinery is 36 million liters and will come to stream during this Iranian calendar month (started December 22).
