According to the official Iranian news agency "IRNA", quoting the minister, Tehran would start exporting gas to Iraq during the current year, and will export the maximum level until next year.

Zanganeh said that his country will raise the volume of oil production to the level before the imposition of sanctions, as of the moment of the lifting of international sanctions imposed on Iran over its nuclear program.

The minister had said on January 10 that his country has signed an agreement with Iraq in order to provide it with 25 million cubic meters of gas per day, but ISIS organization which is active in Iraq was the reason for the postponement of the Convention.

It is noteworthy that Iran is at the forefront of countries rich with oil and faces a number of obstacles in the extraction of oil and gas production because of international sanctions imposed on it.

Western officials announced last Thursday, reaching an agreement framework with Iran by lifting sanctions on Tehran, in exchange for the suspension of more than two-thirds of the current Iranian enrichment capabilities and observe it for 10 years, as this agreement paves the final agreement before the thirtieth of next June.
