Iran pins hopes to triple gas output on South Pars

NICOSIA — Iran plans to triple natural gas production by 2015.

Officials said Iran would reach a gas output of 1.1 billion cubic meters per day. They said the increase would stem from Iranian development of the South Pars gas field in the Gulf.

Iran was estimated to produce about 360 million cubic meters per day. Teheran, however, has been struggling to develop South Pars amid U.S. and other Western sanctions on Iran's energy sector.

Iran has also been developing its gas export network, Middle East Newsline reported. Officials said gas has begun to flow through Iran's new 907-kilometer pipeline from the Gulf city of Asalouyeh to the southeastern province of Sistan Baluchistan near the border with Pakistan.

The pipeline, designed to export gas to Pakistan, was said to have a capacity of 1.8 billion cubic feet per day, with an option to expand to 2.9 billion.
