Although gasoline production has increased by 6.5% since March 2022, consumption has risen by 3.5 times, the head of the National Iranian Oil Products Distribution Company, a subsidiary of the National Iranian Oil Company, said.
“Close to 116 million liters of gasoline were burnt on Dec. 24, which was unprecedented for the cold season as such a massive consumption is usually witnessed in Norouz [Iranian New Year] holidays when most Iranian families go on a trip,” ILNA quoted Ali Akbar Nejad-Ali as saying.
Average daily gasoline consumption has reached 111 million liters per day over the last two weeks, up 16% compared with the same period of a year ago, he added.
