Armenia is interested in Iranian petroleum, as stated by Jalil Salari,
Executive Director of the Iranian National Oil Company for petroleum
sales, Armenia Today reports.
Salari noted that it is disadvantageous for Armenia to import petroleum
from Georgia. Iran offers exports of fuel via road tankers, which
may be replaced by a pipeline in the future.
The Iranian and Armenian energy ministers signed a deal on exports of
gasoline and petroleum in February. Iran has refineries producing 50
million liters daily, with the oil industry producing 100 liters daily.
Alireza Zeydami, Executive Director of the National Oil Company for
refining and exports of Iranian oil, said that shipments of oil have
already started for Iraq, Armenia, Afghanistan and Pakistan. He said
that Iran exported 43 million liters of petroleum (from March 19,
2011, to March 19, 2012), making about $10 billion. Iran plans to
increase petroleum output.
