The Iranian government spokesman warned against the possibility of gas cuts in all districts, including the capital.
🔸 The successive warnings of the officials of the Republic of Salami about the significant shortage of gas consumption this winter continue. Meanwhile, the various figures and numbers presented by these authorities attract more attention than anything else.
In one of the latest cases, Fatma Mohajrani, the spokesperson for the Iranian government, warned on Tuesday, November 10, that "if gas consumption in the country remains high, there will be a possibility of a gas cut in the entire country, including Tehran."
Ms. Mohajerani predicted that the amount of "imbalance" gas will reach 430 million cubic meters this year; the amount that was about 300 million cubic meters last year.
Fatma Mohajerani said at her weekly press conference on Tuesday, 7th Behar, about 6 weeks ago: "Because of the attacks, the energy sector was damaged... As a result of the attacks, 230 million cubic meters were lost and we are trying to recover 100 million meters of it." According to him, "The government is trying to avoid a gas shortage, but we might have problems in the northern districts. But her arrangements were adopted and the governors were warned."
A day before Fatma Mohajrani's last speech, Mohammad Jaafar Campana, Iran's vice president, in a similar warning, asked people to deal with the gas shortage by consuming less.
🔸Mohammed Jaafar Campanh also mentioned last year's shortage of 300 million cubic meters, but emphasizing the loss of production of 230 million cubic meters due to the American war and the captivity in Israel, he announced the current year's shortage of 530 million cubic meters.
According to the words of Masoud Pazhkian, the vice president, it seems that the return of 100 million cubic meters of production, for which Ms. Mohjarni expressed hope, was not fully implemented at least.
