Iranian Gas Exports to Turkey Hit Record

Iran daily gas exports to Turkey has hit a record of 31.5 million cubic meters, Press TV said quoting Iran’s Deputy Oil Minister for Gas Affairs Javad Owji.

As per agreement between the two countries, Iran should export up to 30 mcm per day of gas to its north-western neighbour. More gas was being export after Turkey’s Botas had requested for higher supplies due to increased winter demand, the news report said.

The Iranian official said that more gas exports to Turkey depend on further request from Botas. 

According to Owji, Iran’s average daily gas exports to neighbouring countries, including Armenia and Turkey amount to nearly 35 mcm per day.
