According to IOTC, Abbas Asadvouz told a technical meeting of the company that tapping the potentialities of domestic startups was also one of the priorities of the company

“Given the petroleum minister’s directive to take advantage of domestic startups and equipment, this issue has been systematically considered by IOTC in its planning,” he said.

The official further added that Iran’s oil terminal in Khark Island was regarded as one of the oldest and well-known oil terminals in the world.
