Iran to resume Turkish gas exports
An official of National Iranian Gas Company says gas exports to Turkey will soon resume, after a brief freeze following a pipeline explosion."Gas exports to Turkey will resume Tuesday afternoon," said the NIGC Coordinating and Supervising Manager, Hossein Montazer-Torbati on Monday.
"We are experiencing a break in our gas exports to Turkey because of repairs that are being carried out on the pipeline," he added.
Montazer-Torbati said emergency operation teams from Turkey are working on the leak, which is some five kilometers from the Turkey-Iran border.
Iran exports 20 million square meters of gas to its northern neighbor every day.
A pipeline explosion late Sunday near the town of Dogubayazit in Turkey's Agri province forced authorities to cut the gas flow. It has not yet been determined what caused the blast.
A Turkish energy official has accused Kurdish rebels of being responsible for the incident.
