According to a report, Nasser Ashuri in a press conference said that the oil refinery direct tax reached 48 trillion tomans last year, which is a very high figure, and said: daily gasoline production in the country varies between 110 and 115 million liters, which is estimated as an imbalance. Gasoline is 10 to 15 million liters per day, which is a high figure, and the authorities should think about controlling the consumption, including the consumption of production vehicles which is very high. consumption.
He said that the Persian Gulf Mehr refinery, which is under construction with a supply of 130,000 barrels of gas condensate, has reached 43% progress, and with the operation of this refinery, the problem of the imbalance of the gasoline will be resolved and we will achieve alignment of gasoline production and consumption. , said: If the funding for this refinery is done in time, we will see it running next year, but unfortunately no payment has been made for the allocation of $ 500 million to this refinery.
The General Secretary of the Petroleum Refining Employers Union, indicating that we have presented 3 solutions to the government for the problem of accumulated and large debts to refineries, said: One of the solutions is to issue a license to sell certain petroleum products such as liquefied gas, kerosene, fuel oil... It is to refineries that in recent weeks they have been authorized to sell liquefied gas in excess of domestic needs.
According to Ashuri, the issuance of a license to receive crude oil and condensate for sale from refineries, beyond the 2.2 million barrels currently delivered to refineries, is another solution that has been proposed, as well as the clearance of tax debts with government requests is another solution that we are waiting for its license to be issued.
