BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 9. Approximately 7.35 billion cubic meters of gas were produced at the sixth refinery of Iran's South Pars Gas Company (SPGC) and delivered to the country's gas network during the first half of the current Iranian year (from March 21 through September 22, 2025), Executive Director of SPGC Shahab Chaharlang told local media, Trend reports.
As per his analysis, an estimated 112,000 metric tons of ethane
were synthesized at the sixth refinery within the specified
reporting timeframe.
The generated ethane serves a pivotal function in the synthesis of
higher-value derivatives within the petrochemical facilities across
the nation.
Chaharlang indicated that the output of propane during the
specified timeframe reached a total of 173,000 tons.
Propane is classified as one of the gaseous commodities exported by
the nation.
The corporate representative indicated that an estimated 138,000
metric tons of butane were synthesized during the specified
timeframe.
"Throughout the aforementioned timeframe, a total of 6.56 million
barrels of gas condensate were generated at the sixth refinery," he
elucidated.
Additionally, according to him, 8.38 billion cubic meters of sour gas were delivered to the sixth refinery in the first half of this year.
To note, the rich gas of SPGC's sixth refinery is supplied by phases 15 and 16 of the South Pars gas field. This plant has produced gas condensate, sweet gas, propane, butane, ethane, and sulfur.
Meanwhile, the SPGC refines the rich gas produced at the South Pars gas field. More than 75 percent of the gas consumed in the country is supplied by this company. The company has 13 processing plants.
The South Pars gas field (North Dome in Qatar) is a joint Iran-Qatar gas field. It is reported that this field has 51 trillion cubic meters of gas reserves, of which 36 trillion cubic meters can be produced. Iran's share in this field is 14 trillion cubic meters of gas and 18 billion barrels of gas condensate.
