According to the company’s report, the average daily production of motor gasoline in the first five months of the year (March 20 to Aug. 21, 2024) was 97.5 million liters. This figure rose to an average of 107 million liters per day by the ninth month of Iranian calendar year.

The increase in daily gasoline production was distributed as follows: Isfahan Refinery (1.8 million liters), Imam Khomeini Shazand Refinery (3.3 million liters), Bandar Abbas Refinery (0.8 million liters), Tabriz Refinery (0.3 million liters), Tehran Refinery (0.5 million liters), Persian Gulf Star Refinery (3.2 million liters), Shiraz Refinery (0.1 million liters), and Lavan Oil Refinery (0.1 million liters).

In a related development, Mohsen Paknejad, during a meeting of the Oil Ministry’s deputies on Jan. 11, attended by First Vice President Mohammadreza Aref, stated that the increase in crude oil feedstock for refineries led to a daily production boost of 10 million liters of gasoline and 11 million liters of diesel.

Paknejad emphasized that the rise in petroleum product production has prevented significant foreign currency outflows for imports of these products.

Mohammad-Sadeq Azimifar, CEO of the NIORDC, also noted during the meeting that the current administration’s refining projects, such as the Shiraz Refinery’s isomerization unit, the Abadan Refinery’s hydrocracker unit, and process improvements in refineries, have added 10 million liters to gasoline production and 11 million liters to diesel production.
