Higher output in one of the most border-adjacent parts of the shared South Pars field protects national interests, strengthens Iran\u2019s gas supply, and helps ease the energy imbalance, Saghafi said.<\/p>\n<p>After foreign companies defaulted and withdrew, further development of Phase 11 was assigned to Petropars. With the twelfth well on stream, gas output on the Phase 11 B platform has risen above 28 million cubic meters a day, and about 17 million cubic meters a day has been added during the 14th government.<\/p>\n<p>About 50,000 meters have been drilled at location B, and one rig has been used on the drilling campaign, he said.<\/p>\n<p>As NIOC\u2019s execution arm, Petropars has carried the project from drilling and well completion through offshore and surface facilities. Work continued under sanctions and through two imposed-war episodes and did not stop, subject to technical and safety requirements.<\/p>\n<p>On Phase 11 location A, Saghafi said that in the 14th government, after the jacket was rolled up, construction was completed, and the structure was loaded out and sea-fastened, the jacket was installed in its final position. Piling continued in a tense Persian Gulf after ceasefire violations. Over the past two years, despite difficult conditions, deck construction has gone on and is now the project\u2019s focus. Progress has risen from under 4% to about 50%.<\/p>\n<p>Phase 11 has reached a point where the work of Iranian specialists shows up directly in higher production and field development, he said. Petropars will keep developing the phase with a focus on raising capacity, protecting national interests, and carrying out Oil Ministry policy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The chief executive of Petropars Group, a subsidiary of the Oil Ministry, said gas production capacity at location B of South Pars Phase 11 has reached 1 billion cubic feet a day after all 12 wells at the site came on stream during the 14th government.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18883,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47,20,22,36,19,43,35],"tags":[],"services":[],"class_list":["post-18882","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking-news","category-gas","category-iran","category-lastnews","category-news","category-south-pars","category-topnews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18882","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18882"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18882\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18884,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18882\/revisions\/18884"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18883"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18882"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18882"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18882"},{"taxonomy":"services","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services?post=18882"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
