24mn Barrels of Gas Condensates Exported To Europe, Asia

TEHRAN (Dispatches) - Iran exported 24 million barrels of gas condensates to the European and Asian countries in January.
"Following removal of the international sanctions, the exports volume of Iran's crude oil and gas condensate has climbed from 1.2 to over 2.8 million barrels per day," Managing Director of National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) Ali Kardor announced on Saturday.
Kardor said that the Asian states presently remain as largest customers of Iran's gas condensate though delivery of a one-million-barrel cargo to the British Petroleum (BP)) has added the name of European firms to the list of the eager purchasers.
Iran announced in December that it was already expanding the market for its condensate – which can be used to make both fuel and plastic.
Managing Director of South Pars Gas Complex Masoud Hassani said at the time that the country had sent its first cargo of one million barrels of condensate to Europe.
