TEHRAN (ecoideal)- Managing Director of the Pars Oil and Gas Company Mohammad Meshkinfam announced that Iran is planning to attract tens of millions of dollars in foreign investments.
The announcement was made only days after the country awarded a deal worth €42 million to a consortium led by France’s Sofregaz for a similar project at the treatment plant of South Pars Phases 2 and 3.
Meshkinfam reiterated that the deal with Sofregaz is taking place for the same purpose.
He noted that based on the agreement which was signed on Wednesday, the French company would cooperate with Iran's Samin Sazeh over the project.
Sofregaz will be the second French company that has won a deal in Iran's energy sector. In a relevant development in early July, Total signed an agreement with the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) to develop Iran's South Pars Phase 11. Total is expected to invest around $5 billion in the project which it will implement together with CNPC of China and Petropars of Iran.
