Gasoline consumption is expected to rise by 22% in the Nowruz (Persian New Year) holiday season, managing director of the National Iranian Oil Products Distribution Company said Friday.
Mohammad Reza Mousavikhah said gasoline demand that now is almost 90 million liters per day is projected to exceed 110 ml/d in the coming days when families travel across the country during the annual holidays that begin on March 21.
"Consumption will fall to 97 ml/d after the two-week vacation," he added.
