Khorasan Gas Industry Grows

Gas production in Khangiran Gas Field in Khorasan Razavi Province will increase by 1.4 million cubic meters per day by next March, managing director of the East Oil and Gas Production Company said.
“A new well will become operational this year and three more will be drilled in the future,” Farshid Kheibari was quoted as saying by IRNA.
The EOGPC, a subsidiary of Iranian Central Oil Fields Company, is in charge of supplying gas to the northeast including Khorasan region (north, south and Razavi provinces), in addition to Semnan, Golestan and Mazandaran provinces. 
Located near the border with Turkmenistan, the Khangiran field has a proven reserve of around 480 billion cubic meters. Consisting of 32 wells, the field has been operating since the late 1970s. EOGPC data show the field's current extraction is 17 mcm per day.
