BUSHEHR- Iran exported over 1.405 million tons of petrochemical
products from the South Pars gas field to 29 countries in the first
Iranian calendar month of Farvardin (March 21-April 20), IRNA News
Agency quoted an Iranian senior customs official as saying.
Pars Special Economic Energy Zone (PSEEZ) Customs Office Director
Khodadad Rahimi said on Sunday that more than $1.266 billion worth of
products, mainly heavy polyethylene, methanol, butane, diethylene
glycol, propane, and gas condensate, were exported from PSEEZ in the
mentioned period of time.
China, Japan, the UAE, India, Turkey, Iraq, Taiwan, Thailand,
Malaysia, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Armenia, Russia, Mozambique,
Egypt, Syria, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Ukraine, Qatar, Tanzania,
Philippines, Ghana, Kenya, Azerbaijan, Georgia, South Korea and Mexico
were the destinations for the exported goods, Rahimi said.
Exports from the South Pars gas field rose by 11 percent in weight and
28 percent in value compared to the same period in the previous year,
he added.
Iran will boost production at its South Pars gas field by 100 million
cubic meters per day in the current Iranian calendar year, which began
on March 21, Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Namdar Zanganeh said on April
5.
The South Pars gas field covers an area of 9,700 square kilometers,
3,700 square kilometers of which are in Iran's territorial waters in
the Persian Gulf.
The remaining 6,000 square kilometers, i.e. North Dome, are in Qatar's
territorial waters.
The Iranian gas field, which is divided into 29 phases, contains 14
trillion cubic meters of natural gas, about eight percent of the
world's reserves, and more than 18 billion barrels of LNG resources.
Iran's crude oil output is forecast to increase by about 200,000
barrels per day to 4 million barrels per day, and its daily natural
gas output is forecast to increase by about 100 million cubic meters
per day to 400 million cubic meters per day.
Iran is estimated to hold 33.7 trillion cubic meters of natural gas
and 157 billion barrels of recoverable crude oil reserves.
