The head of the central repair and manufacturing workshop of the South Pars gas complex announced the repair, manufacturing and localization of more than 2,625 parts and key equipment in 9 months of this year and said: The process of localization of equipment has grown by more than 15% compared to the same period last year.

The CEO of Ariassol Polymer Company said: The implementation of the burner gas collection plan prevents the annual waste of 762 tons of ethylene and ethane mixture, and has saved about 408,000 dollars in total.

Gas consumption in the domestic, commercial, and industrial sectors, along with the stability of the cold weather, was recorded at 621 million cubic meters on January 3.

The manager of the 12th South Pars Refinery emphasized the priority of stable and maximum gas production in the cold season and said: This refinery has succeeded in setting new records in the production of gas and by-products by relying on the power of domestic experts, full support of Iranian manufacturers and strict compliance with HSE requirements.

The Deputy Minister of Oil for Engineering, Research and Technology stated that more than 80 percent of the country's first-time production projects have been implemented with the support of the Ministry of Oil, and said: "The approach of supporting domestic production has always been among the main policies of the Ministry of Oil."

The financial director of the National Oil Company said: "Global oil prices have decreased by about 21 percent in recent months compared to previous periods, which is a significant figure, but the Ministry of Oil has partially compensated for the decline in prices by increasing export volumes and reducing discounts."

The CEO of Petropars Group announced the successful completion of the drilling of the 10th well of South Pars Platform B Phase 11 and said: By connecting this well to the circuit, the country's gas extraction capacity will be increased by about 2.5 million cubic meters per day.

The director of the 8th refinery of South Pars gas complex announced the production of more than 13 billion cubic meters of sweet gas in 9 months of this year and said: This amount of production has made a decisive contribution to the stability of gas supply to the domestic, industrial and power plant sectors of the country.

Emphasizing the strategic role of the petrochemical industry in the country's economy, the presidential adviser on economic cooperation announced: by facilitating investment processes, eliminating bureaucracy and using micro-currency capital and the capacity of knowledge-based companies, the petrochemical industry can become one of the most important drivers of wealth creation and economic growth in Iran.

With huge reserves of natural gas, extensive petrochemical infrastructure and several decades of experience in the production of basic products, Iran has the capacity to establish its position in the world's new energy chain through the development of alternative fuels and energy carriers such as ammonia, LPG, LNG and methanol. These products are not only fuel, but also geo-energetic tools and added value creation engines.
