Production of Euro-5 compliant gasoline at the Persian Gulf Star Refinery, a subsidiary the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company, in Bandar Abbas, has exceeded 47 million liters per day, up 30% compared to 2018, managing director of the company said.
"NIORDC produces 90 million liters of Euro-5 gasoline, of which 52% is produced by PGSR and the rest by Shazand Refinery in Arak, Markazi Province, Tabriz Refinery in East Azarbaijan and Bandar Abbas Refinery in Hormozgan Province," Ali Dadvar was quoted as saying by the Oil Ministry news portal.
