Addressing the 4th Iran International Drilling Congress on Saturday, Kardor said it would be crucial for the country to develop the upstream sector of its petroleum industry under various forms of contracts.
The official said NIOC, one of the world's biggest oil companies, will start implementing stipulations of the 6th development plan by March.
"Many of the rigs are outdated and cannot ensure realization of the development plan's purposes, therefore NIOC would welcome importing state-of-the-art rigs to the country," the CEO added.
