Yadollah Baiburdi, the head of the 8th substation of the gas export
organization of Iran, summarizing the gas export volumes over the past
year (March, 2014 - March, 2015), reported that Iran has exported 382
million cubic meters of gas to Armenia over the past year, Iranian
information agency IRNA reports.
According to the Iranian official, Iran exported 9 billion 19 million
cubic meters of gas to Turkey and 294 million to Azerbaijan over the
mentioned period.
In a recent interview to the program R-Evolutia on Armenia TV, the
IRI ambassador to Armenia, Mohammad Reisi, spoke about the possibility
of transporting Iranian gas through the territory of Armenia.
"Iran has got the biggest gas supplies in the word. Naturally, Iran
must look for new markets to export its gas. Iranian gas supply to
Europe has not been considered yet, but if there are such discussions,
Armenia can also be considered as a short, secure and economically
beneficial variant," he said.
In response to the question whether the agreement signed between
Armenia and Russia in the field of gas can become an obstacle for the
Armenian-Iranian energy projects, Ambassador Reisi said, "A contract
with 20 years' term has been signed between Iran and Armenia. Taking
into consideration the agreement signed between Armenia and Russia,
the contract signed by Armenia and Iran undergoes no changes, it is
still in force."
