The three-day conference which started one day after announcement of formal end to anti-Iran sanctions is going to discuss the theme Post-Sanctions Iran: An Open Door to Oil and Gas Investment Opportunities.
Earlier deputy petroleum minister for gas affairs said that thanks to holding world’s largest gas reservoirs, Iran is studying a host of schemes for presence in the international and European gas markets in addition to the neighboring countries.
In view of gas pipeline network, Iran ranks second in the region after Russia.
Meeting the increasing domestic demand as well as boosting export of gas and presence in the global market are among important plans of the company. By completion of the Sixth National Development Plan, Iran’s export will boost from 10 bcm to 66 bcm annually.
“Spain is interested in cooperating with Iran in the development of oil, gas, petrochemical, and refining fields as well as construction of equipment and energy optimization projects which are among our plans in the industry,” he said following a meeting with the visiting Spanish Industry, Energy and Tourism Minister Jose Manuel Soria.
European countries are looking for lucrative big investment opportunities in Iran that will be unlocked by a nuclear deal in the post-sanctions period.
