CNG Stations Going Off Grid Nationwide Due to Gas Curbs

The National Iranian Gas Company has restricted compressed natural gas delivery to pumps across the nation, especially in northern provinces namely North Khorasan, Golestan, South Khorasan, Mazandaran and Khorasan Razavi, the head of the CNG Department of state-run National Iranian Oil Products Distribution Company said.
“As long as household gas consumption is above 650 million cubic meters per day, CNG stations all over the country have to be either closed or operate part time,” Mohammad Hossein Baqeri was also quoted as saying by IRNA.
Gas consumption in households has surpassed 700 mcm/d and NIGC has already cut fuel supply to thermal power plants, industries and petrochemical plants, he added.
