Negotiations for importing gas from Russia are underway, and the two sides have put various technical and financial issues on the table. The last understanding between the two countries was to send about 150 million cubic meters of Russian gas to Iran from Azerbaijan.
The analysis of gas consumption statistics in the first week of November indicates a change in the consumption pattern in the country at the same time as the temperature has decreased in recent days; So that the consumption of the domestic and commercial sectors exceeded that of the power plants.

This measure is part of the country's energy consumption optimization program and addressing the country's energy imbalance.
The Minister of Oil said: "The amount of gas delivered to the network has increased by about 6.7 million cubic meters per day, and oil and gas reserves in power plants have also increased by 130 percent. In light of these efforts, we are entering the cold season this year with very favorable conditions."
