The UAE is the main winner of the lawsuit between National Iranian Oil Company and Crescent

According to Energy Press, the most challenging commercial contract in the history of the Islamic Republic of Iran had a big loser and a special winner. We lost and UAE won.
But why did this happen? Regardless of Heidari’s fights – Nemati, which has become a common coin of the media and political figures for years, it must be said that Crescent is a problematic contract; From the price and the way of concluding the contract to the bribes that were exchanged during the conclusion of this contract. However, neither Pai Zanganeh is in the middle of these bribes, nor his team, who basically had no role in the bribes paid.
Crescent should be seen as a process; Not that because a government signed it, then it is “disgusting” and because the government aligned with the critics stopped its implementation, then it should be said “well done”. The story of Crescent is much more complicated than what has been published in the media, and the fans of both sides are making epics out of it.

22 years have passed since 2001 until now, and the Salman gas field, which was supposed to be the source of gas sales to Crescent, has been almost completely drained and its gas has migrated to the Emirati part of the field. The Islamic Republic of Iran did not take any gas from this field, nor did it bring any gas to the coast for use in the domestic consumption network.

In the disputes and gas disputes between the National Iranian Oil Company and Crescent, which involved four governments, the Emiratis easily took the gas and the Emirates Crescent Company, by condemning the National Oil Company in the commercial courts, imposed heavy crimes on the country. Is.

Zanganeh and his team are on the other side of the story; Those who, in any way, considered the signing of this agreement to benefit the national interests, so they insisted on signing it and did what they thought was right.

In the next government headed by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Crescent had opponents who had a strange insistence that it should not be implemented; For example, Saeed Jalili announced that eventually the Iranian side would be fined 850 million dollars, and they preferred this fine to the implementation of the contract.
