All these tasks will be put out to tender and Iranian companies can participate in these tenders,&#8221; Zanganeh said.<br \/> \tThe offshore venture will be developed in two phases. The first phase, at an estimated cost of $2 billion, will consist of 30 wells and two wellhead platforms connected to onshore treatment facilities by two subsea pipelines.<br \/> \tSigned in early July, the gas deal with Total marked the return of the first topflight western oil company to Iran after the easing of international economic restrictions in 2016.<br \/> \tThe world&#8217;s fourth-largest oil company was active in phases 2 and 3 of South Pars, but it ceased operations in Iran in 2010 following disagreements over contract terms as well as pressure from the French and US governments over oil and trade sanctions against Tehran.<br \/> \tChina&#8217;s state oil and gas company CNPC and Iran&#8217;s Petropars also hold a stake in SP Phase 11 project.<br \/> \tCNPC is mulling over plans to buy Total&#8217;s stake if the French group drops out of the project to comply with new potential US sanctions against Tehran, Reuters reported last week, citing CNPC officials who did not want to be identified.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>madaresharghi Iran&#8217;s milestone gas deal with French energy giant Total is expected to take a leap forward by March next year, as Tehran is speeding up efforts to award the project&#8217;s subcontracts. &#8220;Based on plans, all subcontracts to develop Phase 11 of South Pars Gas Field should be awarded by the end of the [fiscal] [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[2,8],"tags":[296,118,28,31,159,639,178,56,213,84,95,82,68,22,23,27],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.7 -
