Crude oil and the derivatives supply chain has extended by another 700 kilometers, managing director of the Iranian Oil Pipeline and Telecommunication Company's Tehran office said on Monday.
"The 20-inch 420-km Nain-Kashan-Rey pipeline plus the 26-inch 300-km Shazand-Qom-Rey are now operational, expanding the supply network by 700 km," Mojtaba Besharatian was quoted as saying by ILNA.
The first pipeline, built at a cost of $55 million, moves 30 million liters of gasoline per day from Persian Gulf Star Refinery in southern Hormozgan Province to Tehran. The venture includes 10 crude storage tanks with 300 million liters capacity, two pumping stations in Nain and Kashan plus a terminal in Rey.
