The Investment Manager of the National Petrochemical Company emphasized that the government's duty is not to be an operator, but rather to be a policymaker and regulator, and said: "Global experience shows that the appropriate combination of government support and freedom of action for the private sector brings the best results in attracting capital and sustainable development."

During the Ahmadinejad administration, some people without the necessary expertise entered the case and made wrong decisions. While, according to documents, some Iranian lawyers received between one and one and a half percent of the export amount as a fee. In contrast, the Emirati side had offered a much lower figure, around 8 cents per unit of gas.

The executor of the Gore-Jask crude oil pipeline construction project said: "Relying on the power of knowledge-based companies and domestic manufacturers, Matan Company succeeded in localizing the technical knowledge of casting the body of 42-inch centrifugal pumps."

He pointed out that the National Iranian Gas Company has taken effective steps today towards efficiency and optimization of energy consumption, adding: "Among the projects implemented in this regard is the pilot of Karvar companies in seven provinces of the country, which, according to predictions, will lead to an increase in energy efficiency of more than 10 percent."

The CEO of the National Gas Company emphasized the need to reform the energy consumption pattern, develop micro-investments, and improve productivity at the International Conference on Investment and Financing of the Oil, Gas, and Petrochemical Industries.

The National Iranian Drilling Company announced that 72 oil wells were completed in the first half of this year, an increase of 20 compared to the same period last year.

Hossein Mirafazli, an energy expert, emphasized the need to change the home heating pattern, saying: "The high rate of gas consumption in the domestic sector indicates a huge waste of energy in the country, and the share of gas in home heating should be gradually reduced to 20 to 30 percent over five years, and replaced by electricity."

With the successful completion of major repairs on 35 South Pars platforms, Pars Oil and Gas Company announced that it is ready to provide the country with sustainable gas supply during the winter season. The operation was carried out over a six-month period and involved upgrading process and safety equipment.

The South Pars gas field, which supplies 70 percent of the country's gas, has entered a natural pressure drop phase. Implementing a pressure-boosting plan with the aim of maintaining production, preventing gas migration to Qatar, and increasing the recovery rate is a vital step in managing the country's gas balance.

With the successful launch of the F43 well in the Yadavaran joint field, the plan to increase production in this field has entered the implementation phase. As the first of 24 new wells, this well has achieved sustainable production by relying on domestic capacity and complying with safety and environmental requirements.
