TEHRAN (Iran News) –The CEO of Iranian Gas Engineering and Development Company (IGEDC) announced the deal for exporting forty home-made turbines to Russia and reiterated that Iran’s gas production has been doubled during the sanctions era.
Speaking in a meeting, Reza Noshadi said that industrial successes of the country are not limited to the missile and drone sectors and currently 85% of the installations and equipment required by the gas industry are manufactured in the country and due to this capability, Iran signed agreement with Russia to export 40 home-made turbines to Moscow.
He then said that for the first time in the country, the fully-Iranian made control system was used in the gas compressor station in Khormoj, and stipulated that young talented Iranians, after successful transfer of the technology of manufacturing turbines from eastern and western European countries, continued their sacred efforts for the industrial independence and today the country is in a position that the output of its home-made turbines is more than the foreign likes.
Emphasizing the brilliant achievements of the gas industry during the sanctions era, he compared the resistance of Iran’s oil industry with Venezuela during the sanctions.
Noshadi then pointed to the plots of the arrogant countries for thwarting efforts of the independent countries for achieving self-sufficience. He also pointed to the sabotage of Americans in the world gas trade scene and said that in recent years the U.S. has started the launch of LNG production companies and they have recently imposed all-out sanctions against Russia and the explosion of the Nord-Stream pipeline has actually sidelined, Russia, one of the major rivals of the U.S. in gas exports.
He stressed that malicious acts are taken by the so-called pro-democracy countries and enemies are trying to undermine big achievements of the country through painting a dark picture of the current condition by resorting to misinformation.
Noshadi went on to say that the current price of energy does not at all match the costs of exploration, excavation, production, refinery and distribution, adding that any act which is not economic will face problem in the long time and it will have consequences like pollution and traffic.
