Research projects to convert low-quality flared gas into electricity are producing the desired results, a senior consultant in the Energy Research Institute said Thursday.
"Collaboration between ERI and the Research Institute of Petroleum Industry -- a research and development arm of the Oil Ministry -- can help prevent 17 billion cubic meters of gas from being wasted," Hamid Chitchian was quoted as saying by the Energy Ministry news portal.
