The head of Region 5 of the Shazand Oil Refinery said: "The major repairs of the Imam Khomeini (RA) Shazand Oil Refining Company were carried out using local capacities, equipment, and domestic experts."
Following the publication of some incorrect news regarding the suspension of Isfahan Oil Refining Company projects, the Public and International Relations Department of Isfahan Petrorefining Company provided explanations in this regard in order to clarify the matter.
The spokesman for the Energy Commission of the Islamic Consultative Assembly stated that strict implementation of the law with serious determination is necessary to reduce fuel smuggling, and said: "It is necessary to take seriously solutions such as smartization and metering in line with the fight against smuggling."
In 2024, all listed methanol producers experienced a decline in production.
Members of the Energy Commission of the Islamic Consultative Assembly will review the situation of petroleum product smuggling this week in the presence of the CEO of the National Petroleum Products Refining and Distribution Company.
Contrary to the unprofessional comments of some critics of the 14th government who are trying to blame the Ministry of Oil for the blackouts, a review of the ministry's performance in the last four months shows that during this same period, many records have been broken in the field of oil and gas production and delivery to the country's power plants.
The director of the National Petroleum Products Distribution Company in Ilam announced the charging of a new kerosene quota for the household sector in the winter season for all urban, rural, and nomadic households in the province that do not have a natural gas connection.
In the summer, given the widespread use of electric cooling devices and considering Iran's climate, it is acceptable that Iran's mostly worn-out power plants will have trouble supplying electricity. But what about the power outages in the winter?
Everything can be found in cyberspace, from Iranian crude oil exports to gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, and liquefied petroleum gas. Since there is insufficient monitoring of the purchase and sale of fuel in cyberspace and its sources of supply, it seems that traces of smuggling can be seen in online fuel sales.
An energy expert said: "The energy imbalance in the country is increasing every year, such that gasoline consumption has increased by 50 percent in five years, and a similar situation exists in other energy carriers. It seems that in these circumstances, an energy ministry should be established."
