Iran Prepared for Gas Swap With Neighboring Countries

Iran is ready to start gas swap with Turkmenistan to increase gas exports to Armenia, Oil Minister Javad Owji said.
In a meeting with Armenian Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructures Gnel Sanosyan on Monday, Owji said talks between the two sides were positive and constructive, the Oil Ministry’s news agency Shana reported.
“Negotiations for gas swap from Turkmenistan to Armenia through Iran have started and will soon achieve good results due to the high capacity of Iran’s gas distribution network,” he added.
Ties between Iran and Armenia have been growing in recent years in political, economic, trade, cultural and tourism fields.
