POGC presses ahead with refinery rebuild after war damage

SHANA (Tehran) – South Pars refineries hit in recent conflicts are being restored on an accelerated schedule, company says.

Touraj Dehqani, managing director of Pars Oil and Gas Company, thanked employees for round-the-clock work he called the most important factor in advancing the company's production, development and reconstruction programs, which aim to restore the country's natural gas capacity.

Dehqani spoke on the sidelines of a visit Thursday by the managing director of the National Iranian Oil Company to inspect reconstruction work at South Pars refineries damaged during recent conflicts. During the tour, officials reviewed the latest status of rebuilding efforts and discussed field operations and upcoming plans, according to POGC.

Dehqani said that after the attacks, the company mobilized its technical, engineering and operational resources, relying on the expertise of oil industry specialists and staff working around the clock to clear debris, secure damaged sites, assess technical losses and begin reconstruction as quickly as possible. He said the work remains on schedule.

He noted that Train 3 at the Phase 14 refinery was restored to operation within 10 days, while debris-clearing at Refineries 3 and 5 was completed safely in less than two months. Restoration of the final sweetening unit at the Phase 14 refinery is also underway and moving according to schedule, he said.

Dehqani said all reconstruction work is proceeding in line with approved timelines and with full attention to technical, engineering and safety requirements, adding that he hopes the damaged refineries will return to service as soon as possible and resume their role in the country's energy supply.

He credited support from the oil minister, the NIOC's managing director and the continuous efforts of company staff, saying cooperation among different parts of the oil industry has enabled a coordinated approach to the reconstruction projects.

Dehqani also pointed to other company priorities, including sustained natural gas production, ongoing major maintenance work and continued progress on development projects, saying the company remains focused on serving the national interest through sustained effort across all fronts.
