Paknejad praised the efforts of South Pars platform teams for achieving this milestone. He noted that a major portion of Iran’s domestic, commercial, and industrial gas needs comes from this field.
Paknejad spoke about the reconstruction of the Fajr Jam refinery, where two trains were damaged during the 12-day war. He said the refinery has returned to production in less than six months and adding 12–13 million cubic meters of gas daily.
The oil minister also confirmed that Phase 14 of South Pars is undergoing reconstruction and will soon resume operations, supporting electricity generation.
He said since the start of the year, an additional 3.5 billion cubic meters of gas has been delivered to power plants, ensuring uninterrupted electricity supply.
According to the minister, adequate liquid fuel has also been provided to prevent any shortages, which ensures homes across Iran remain heated and powered during peak demand.
