Oil Minister Mohsen Paknejad wrote Friday on his X account that the president had commended the Oil Ministry’s performance during the previous winter.

Paknejad said the achievement was the result of the efforts of employees across Iran’s oil industry, adding that the country’s strength relies on their dedication and hard work.

Expressing appreciation for the president’s continued support, the minister said the administration’s efforts were instrumental in promoting energy-saving measures among the public.

“We will not forget that Dr. Pezeshkian played a historic role in encouraging people to participate in reducing consumption,” Paknejad wrote.
