Mohammadreza Julaei, director of production coordination and supervision at the company, said Tuesday that reliable power systems are critical to maintaining gas output and must be closely monitored.

Speaking at a meeting on South Pars’ strategic projects, Julaei highlighted the field’s role in supplying much of Iran’s gas, electricity and gasoline. “With the expertise of our specialists and experienced staff, we must once again ensure the country’s energy supply this winter,” he said, according to the South Pars Gas Complex.

Julaei stressed the importance of preparing refinery units before the onset of cold weather, including comprehensive and regular inspections of critical equipment to prevent disruptions.

On the project to reduce flaring across 13 refineries, he said progress has been steady but called for faster operations and resolution of contractor-related issues to meet targets.

South Pars refineries produce more than 600 million cubic meters of gas per day, Julaei said, calling it a key factor in public welfare and national standing. He added that urgent maintenance of turbines is essential to avoid production problems in the winter months.
