TEHRAN — The project of Iran’s gas conveyance pipeline to Armenia will come on stream early 2007, Reza Kasaiizadeh, the managing director of the National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC) said here on Wednesday.

“First, Iran will export 3 million cu. m. of gas per day to Armenia. The figure will gradually reach 10 million cu. m. of gas per day, according to the
schedule,” he told Iranian Students News Agency (ISNA).

Shifting to Iran-Turkey gas pipeline, he said that Iran’s gas export to Turkey was resumed on October 2, after parts of the pipeline which were damaged by
