The transfer of sour gas from Azar, containing approximately 66,000 ppm of hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), began at 2:00 PM on March 2nd, 2025, after dehydration and pressurization in three stages. The pressure was increased to 135 bar to facilitate its flow to downstream facilities. The gas successfully reached its destination after traveling 129 kilometers along a 16-inch seamless pipeline.
This successful feat, achieved despite the challenging and complex nature of the Azar oil field, serves as a powerful reminder that no goal is out of reach when driven by the will and determination of Iranian youth. The significance of this success is amplified considering it was accomplished during unjust sanctions, without reliance on foreign experts. Fulfilling national commitments and preventing the wastage of a substantial volume of gas associated with oil not only preserves national resources but also helps to prevent environmental damage.
Given the unique characteristics of oil and gas extraction in the Azar field, this complex operation undoubtedly results from the unwavering efforts and dedicated cooperation of the entire Sarvak Azar family. Their consistent success in overcoming difficulties, delivering on promises, and executing plans with quality, flexibility, and capability underscores their invaluable contribution to national development.
