Iran to Finalize Natural Gas Swap Deal With Russia Soon 

The National Iranian Gas Company and Russia’s oil and gas giant Gazprom will soon finalize a natural gas swap deal in Moscow, as fruitful talks have been held between the two sides.
Iran’s Oil Minister Javad Owji made the statement after a meeting with Igor Levitin, an aide to Russian President Vladimir Putin, on Wednesday in Tehran, the Oil Ministry’s news service reported.
Negotiations to swap other petroleum products are yet to come to fruition, he added, noting that NIGC has the infrastructure for increasing gas import and swap with neighboring countries to 15 billion cubic meters per year.
