OTC to Build 14 Turbochargers for NIOC

The National Iranian Oil Company and the Oil Turbo Compressor Company (OTC) will soon sign a contract for manufacturing 14 turbo compressors, which will help save $2.2 billion annually, the head of the Oil Industry Technology and Innovation Park said.
“A huge amount of associated petroleum gas is burned in the country annually. The use of domestically-made turbo compressors to help collect flare gas will save a lot of money,” Esmaeil Kefayati was also quoted as saying by the Oil Ministry’s news agency Shana.
According to the official, OTC has also voiced its readiness to manufacture compressors for pressure booster platforms of the South Pars Gas Field.
