Managing Director of the National Iranian Gas Export Company (NIGEC) says Pakistan wants to transfer Iran’s gas and China is eager to import it.
“Iran’s advantage over its rival countries (Qatar and Russia) is being situated between two big gas consumption markets, China and Europe,” SHANA quoted Hossein Bidarmaghz as saying.
He went on to highlight China’s growing need for gas and LNG, saying that its consumption would equal all of Europe by 2030.
Bidarmaghz said if the Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline is extended to China it will facilitate gas exports to the country adding that Iranian and Chinese officials would review the matter in the future.
