NIOPDC’s deputy Shahrokh Khosravani told Shana the company intends to achieve its planned targets through expanding CNG stations across the country as well as implementation of gasoline vapor programs.
Vapor gasoline programs will prevent wasting part of gasoline and along with boosting CNG consumption will help NIOPDC to reduce gasoline imports, he said.
Elsewhere in his remarks he said while it was predicted the country needs to import 10 million liters of gasoline per day and NIOPDC was planning for imports of 7 million liters, the average daily gasoline imports have confined to 5 million liters per day so far this year, he said.
