Five South Pars Phases To Come on Stream


Iranian Oil Minister Rostam Qasemi told reporters today in Tehran that five phases of the South Pars gas field will come on stream by the end of September despite U.S. sanctions against Iran. Qasemi added that a large proportion of equipment required for the development of 17 phases of the giant gas field is now being supplied by domestic manufactures. (IRNA/Press TV, 5 July)

The South Pars gas field is located in the Persian Gulf straddling the common border between Iran and Qatar. It is estimated that the field contains 14 trillion cubic meters of gas and 18 billion barrels of condensates. The gas production projects in Iran’s Pars Special Economic Energy Zone have been divided into 28 phases
