ONE MORE SCANDAL: WHERE WAS IRANIAN GAS LOST?
The Iranian Fars agency dwelt on the export of Iranian gas to Armenia.
The agency wrote that around 1.558 billion cubic meters of gas has been
supplied to Armenia which was used to generate and export electricity
to Iran between 2007 and 2012, the National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC)
reported. Note that the rate is 1 cubic meter gas for 3kWh electricity.
But the most interesting thing is the information that Iran exported
a total of 481 million cubic meters of gas to Armenia in 2012.
It was stated during the June 8 discussion on gas price that Armenia
received only 350 million cubic meters of gas from Iran. Discrepancy
is 130 million cubic meters between the Armenian and Iranian data.
The Iranian agency reports that according to the deal with the Armenian
government in 2004, Iran is supposed to export to Armenia 36 billion
cubic meters of gas in 2007-2027. 1/3 of this period has passed but
Armenia received only a small part of the aforementioned amount.
The contract supposes extension of supply period up to five years. In
this case the amount of gas to be imported reached 47 billion cubic
meters.
