Araqi noted that Iran is the world’s top gas reserves holder with 34 trillion cubic meters.
“Iran’s gas treatment capacity will hit as much as 330 billion cubic meters per annum by 2017 which in turn will raise the capacity for natural gas exports,” he stated.
NIGC has development of four gas storage projects on the agenda of which two projects have come online so far, NIGC official noted.
“The country produced 173 billion cubic meters of natural gas in 2014,” he said, adding Iran is currently the world's fourth largest producer of natural gas after the USA, Russia and Qatar.

At the end Araqi mentioned that NIGC aims at ranking the third among natural gas producers in the world to achieve 8 to 10 percent of the global gas trade share. The second objective of NIGC is ranking the first in the region in terms of gas technology.
