Iran Press/ Iran news: Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the weekly cabinet session, the minister said the country’s oil output amounted to 2.2m bpd when the incumbent administration took office two years ago.
The figure has now soared to 3.4m bpd thanks to the Oil Ministry’s measures over the past 24 months, he mentioned.
Given the ministry’s plans and investments in onshore and offshore fields, domestic oil output will hopefully increase, Owji added.
Statistics showed a 19.8 percent economic growth for the oil and gas industry in spring 2023, recalled the minister, expressing hope that the upward trend will continue.
