TEHRAN (FNA)- Production of gas condensate has increased in phases 6, 7 and 8 of the South Pars Gas Field, an official said on Saturday.
Behzad Salari said that nearly 18.1 million barrels of gas condensate have been produced at the refinery in the first seven months of the current Iranian year (March 20- October 21, 2020), indicating a 14% hike compared with last year’s 15.9 million barrels.
Iran's gas exports have also increased after the production growth at SPGF.
SPGF, shared with Qatar, is the world’s largest gas field with an area of 9,700 square kilometers.
Iran exports an average of 80 million cubic meters of gas per day.
In relevant remarks on December 30, Managing Director of Pars Oil and Gas Company Mohammad Meshkinfam said that the gas condensate storage of SPGF’s phase 14 has been put into operation, adding that the completion of the new storage will boost reservoir capacity of gas condensates in the complex.
“The company will also build the second storage for gas condensates,” Meshkinfam said, adding that the preparations are underway for construction of the third storage and designing the project will be worked out by the end of January 2021.
