The more than two-decade-old contract to export 10 billion cubic meters of Iranian gas annually to Turkey expires in mid-2026, but unlike in the past, there is no sign of Ankara's willingness to extend it this time. This is an issue that experts see as not only a threat to the country's gas revenue, but also a danger to Iran's geopolitical position in the region.

The publication of a strange news item by the international media outlet "TankerTrackers" stating that Iranian tankers' trackers have been turned on after seven and a half years has inflamed the oil scene. A claim that some experts consider a sign of "shadow government" interference and an attempt to create a crisis and new pressure on the new government. But what is the story?

The CEO of South Zagros Oil and Gas Company, referring to more than three decades of production from the Nar gas field, said that with the implementation of the pressure boost project since year 2, more than 5 % of the gas has been produced and its conversion program is underway.
