TEHRAN (Shana) -- Iran enjoys great potential for delivering oil, gas and petroleum products to regional and global markets, due to its geographical position and potential energy and mining reserves. Having such potential in mind, efforts have started to put the country on the path to becoming the energy hub of the region. The first step was the signing a gas swap agreement for the delivery of Turkmenistan’s gas to Azerbaijan via Iran’s territory. Now, as the 13th administration is in its second year in office, the focus is on exporting products, bartering and swapping via the Caspian Sea, in which case, cooperation is planned with foreign firms including Russian companies.
