    Iran-Armenia Pipeline Construction Ends

    TEHRAN (FNA)- Construction work has been finished on Iran-Armenian
    pipeline.

    Armenian specialists are now dealing with the technical issues for the
    construction of pipeline from Kacharan, the boundary region to
    Yerevan, Iranian sources said.

    Testing of transportation of Iranian gas will begin within the next
    few days.

    "Armenia will receive from 2.3 billion to 2.5 billion cubic meters of
    gas from Tehran through this pipeline a year," Armenian Minister of
    Industry and Energy Armen Movsisyan said.

    "The opening of the Iranian-Armenian pipeline will guarantee the
    energy security for Armenia", he noted. According to Movsisyan, the
    pipeline will secure Armenia against energy problems in the cases of
    crisis.

    The Armenian minister also said that his country would soon sign a new
    gas agreement with Russia. However, Movsisyan declined to mention the
    price for gas in the agreement with Russia.
