Pak/Iran Gas plans future
The impression after the agreement on the nuclear program between Iran and world powers that have paved the way for the gas imported from Pakistan and Iran, but in reality it is not so easy and simple. There were some problems concerning the international sanctions, but most issues involving the government's intention and political will. Iran has spread its part of the pipeline, while Pakistan did not have to do our part and still working on it. Govt has already completed three years of his term, but still I can imagine that some do not see that really the government is committed to completing the project, the main question after the situation arises that the Iran-Pakistan gas What is the future pipeline.
Two days ago, the Petroleum Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi was leaving a television talk show me respect them stopped for a few seconds. , came to see me with this question with Shahid Khaqan Abbasi wonder if our government does not keep hope you will be able to finish the project and the next government. The minister had said that perhaps we lay gas pipeline from Gwadar to Nawabshah from, because they are the LNG terminal at Gwadar and will go in LNG system there, but we pipeline it there will be mandatory if the Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline, Iranian gas pipeline are possible, this time to the government to build the 80-kilometer pipeline to Gwadar online and Iranian gas pipeline will connect the line if progress on project .
Everything has already been said, the next question is what causes that Iran has laid the pipes to their border line, but you are unable to complete it. The agreement was signed between the two states or a government agreement between the two governments, too. The Minister said that the agreement Zardari government in a hurry, because the elections were around the issue price has been fixed and the project opens in a hurry. Election sides to win this opening, so we ask Arab friends why such an expensive contract? The friends were also at the opening ceremony, the reality is that 25 percent of Iranian gas, LNG prices are expensive and I have explained to the Iranian petroleum. Second, they also said that the bank is not willing to guarantee the project, no contractor is not in the third. In such a situation how we can start work on the project. According to the agreement may tranzksn dollar, while the dollar Control is America, after a certain point you can not tranzksn.
Shahid Khaqan Abbasi are already saying that the next question are turning to Iran after getting up is that law sanctions the world countries and the agreement, that this is what my response (Shahid Khaqan Abbasi) I have been to other countries to sell their goods to Iran, we are going to buy gas from Iran. In this situation, we will see much more. If you were to stand where we will take sanctions. Because the agreement with world powers on Iran, it can also take sanctions again it is written, while LNG when you do not want. The agreement we are obliged to take gas from Iran for 25 years. Not just words, it is possible to Petroleum Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi record, but an informal meeting he is all that we have, which makes clear that the plan until at least the base until the completion of the government can not reach.
It seems clear from the minister's words, N is the whole focus on the import of LNG, the project does not want to be teased. This situation is that during meetings between officials of both countries, these things come and the fact that Pakistan, it is part of the pipeline. An event one week before the Islamabad Marriott Hotel, which was also attended despise me, were the ambassadors of both countries at the event. Asif Durrani, Pakistan's ambassador to Tehran said in his address to the ceremony that will be held in Iran's gas to Pakistan in the next two years. To purchase is clear that the gas pipeline is being built to Gwadar from Nawabshah line is currently built for LNG, that Iranian gas. Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said that Iran can also refer to the court case and may impose a heavy penalty on Pakistan, but it has been in the company International Court of Balochistan project, saying the Pakistan case fighting.
