Iranian President Visits Intl. Oil Expo in Tehran

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Tuesday paid a visit to the 23rd International Oil, Gas, Refining and Petrochemical Exhibition (Iran Oil Show-2018) underway in the capital Tehran.

Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Namdar Zangeneh and NIOC (National Iranian Oil Company) Managing Director Ali Kardor accompanied the president during his tour of the international exhibition.

Exhibitors from 38 countries are representing over 4,000 Iranian and foreign international companies at the showcase, touted as the largest annual convention in Iran's petroleum industry.

The exhibition is sponsored by the Iranian Oil Ministry and its subsidiary the National Iranian Oil Company.

It kicked off on Sunday and will come to an end on Wednesday.

The exhibitors see the event as a great opportunity to directly get in touch with major foreign companies and domestic producers to undertake mutual cooperation and strike contracts in the upstream and downstream oil sectors.

Last year's exhibition was attended by 800 international companies from China, South Korea, Turkey, Italy, Spain, France, Austria, Germany and Finland.
