NITC to Restart Oil Transfer to Europe Soon

In Bandar Abbas, Ramin Rajaei, an official from the National Iranian Tanker Company, said that the NITC will restart oil cargoes to Europe in the near future.

Speaking to reporters, he noted that even during the sanctions, Iranian tankers preserved their international standards and remained up-to-date.

After the removal of Iran’s sanctions, NITC sent its first oil cargo to African destinations, along with Asian customers, and it is expected that the first Iranian oil cargo to Europe will be underway in the near future, the official added.
