No Gasoline Import Plan for Norouz

Gasoline inventories are full and the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company has no plans to import fuel to meet gasoline demand for the Norouz (Iranian New Year) holiday season, director of NIORDC, a subsidiary of the National Iranian Oil company, said.
“Daily gasoline consumption in Iran has exceeded 86 million liters and it is predicted to surpass 100 ml/d between March 17 and April 1 when families travel across the country,” Jalil Salari was also quoted as saying by IRNA.
NIORDC produces 105 million liters of gasoline per day, of which 52% are produced by the Persian Gulf Star Refinery and the rest by Shazand Refinery in Arak, Markazi Province, Tabriz Refinery in East Azarbaijan and Bandar Abbas and Lavan refineries in Hormozgan Province, he added.
