FUEL Feed Atom

The deputy oil minister and chief executive of the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company said the enemy targeted pump stations and the Rey oil depot, cutting the transfer of 90 million liters of products a day, in an attempt to shut filling stations in the capital and paralyze fuel distribution across the northern belt within 72 hours. Round-the-clock work by oil-industry staff and a chain of road tankers, he said, blocked a planned gasoline shortage and social crisis.
President Masoud Pezeshkian said Saturday that managing resources and securing public cooperation will be essential to decisions about the future of fuel supplies, warning that Iran must be prepared to manage shortages if production and imports remain constrained.
The head of the National Iranian Oil Products Distribution Company reported a significant rise in gasoline consumption, with daily distribution reaching 134.5 million liters during the first 24 days of the Iranian month of Tir (late June–July).
