Iran Loses 95 Million Cubic Meters/Day of Gas Capacity After Assaluyeh Damage

Summary

  • 95 million cubic meters per day of Iranian gas production capacity went offline after damage to part of the Assaluyeh gas processing facilities, Oil Minister Mohsen Paknejad said Tuesday.
  • Late September is the target for restoring that lost output, making the disruption temporary but significant for one of Iran’s main gas hubs.
  • 230 million cubic meters per day had already been cut from Iran’s gas production capacity since the war began in late February, a senior government official said in July.
  • About 100 million cubic meters per day of those earlier losses was expected to return within months, showing Assaluyeh adds to a broader wartime strain on Iran’s gas system.
