According to the National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC), Hadi Hashemizadeh Farhang said the boost is expected to be made possible by precise and targeted planning for reduction of overhaul time in the refineries during summer.

SPGC includes onshore refineries that process natural gas from phases of the supergiant South Pars gas field in the Persian Gulf.

He said based on the plans, overhauls of the facilities are expected to decrease by 27 days this year.
