 Focus on production capacity, stability 

During the one-day visit on Saturday to the Khangiran operational area, Bovard emphasized the importance of increasing production capacity and ensuring the stability of gas supplies in eastern Iran.

Accompanied by Farrokh Alikhani, the company’s director of oil and gas production oversight, and other officials, Bovard began the visit by inspecting the Tous Gas Field.

 Visit to CMF Measurement Center 

The delegation then visited the CMF measurement center of the East Oil and Gas Production Company to examine measurement processes and evaluate the accuracy of gas production systems.

The CMF center plays a critical role in production operations by precisely measuring key parameters such as output levels, pressure, temperature, and product quality.
