The executive of the Bilal Joint Gas Field Development Plan pointed out that the development of this field will add 14.2 million cubic meters to Iran's gas production capacity, saying: "This amount of gas production is equivalent to the consumption of the coldest province in the country in winter."
651 million cubic meters, equivalent to 74 percent of total gas produced yesterday, was consumed in the domestic, commercial, and small industrial sectors due to the persistence of cold weather.
The deputy head of development plans at Pars Oil and Gas Company said: "With the completion of one of the gas wells in Phase 13 of South Pars, the gas production capacity from this phase increased by 1.7 million cubic meters per day."

The Foreign Minister referred to the President's plans for his trip to Russia and said: "We will have important negotiations in several areas, one of which is the issue of exporting Russian gas to Iran and transporting Russian gas from Iran, which could turn Iran into an energy and gas hub in the region."
The CEO of the South Pars Gas Complex, emphasizing the need to manage consumption and for compatriots to join the "2 degrees below" campaign in the country, said: "Since the beginning of this year, more than 157.3 billion cubic meters of gas have been sent from all the refineries of the South Pars Gas Complex to the national pipeline."
