TEHRAN (FNA)- Domestic oil refineries production of euro-4 gasoline has reached 21 million liters per day, Managing-Director of the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company (NIORDC) Alireza Zeighami said.
"Daily production of euro-4 gasoline by Imam Khomeini and Abadan oil refineries stands at 12 and 3 million liters respectively while several other oil refineries are producing lower amount of the product," Zeighami told the oil ministry's website.

"Similar boosting gasoline production projects are underway in Bandar Abbas and Shiraz oil refineries along with building Anahita and Persian Gulf Star gas condensate refineries which aims at boosting distribution of qualified gasoline across the country," Zeighami noted.
