Heavy crude refining capacity in Arvandan Oil and Gas Company, a subsidiary of the National Iranian Oil Company, has reached 165,000 barrels per day, up 18% compared to 10 months ago, managing director of the firm said.
"The boost in processing output capacity has helped raise the company’s monthly revenues by at least $700,000," Abdollah Ozari Ahvazi was also quoted as saying by the Oil Ministry's news portal.
The facility is now equipped with three trains of processing units, each of which can refine 55,000 barrels of crude per day, he added.
AOGC manages 13 oilfields, from which it expects to produce 1 million bpd of oil by 2025. These include South and North Azadegan, Yadavaran, Darkhovein, Sousangerd, Arvand, Jofeir, Band-e-Karkheh, Sohran, Omid, Moshtaq, Khorramshahr, Yaran and Sepehr oilfields.
