TEHRAN - Average daily gasoline consumption in Iran has reached about 132 million liters, Oil Minister Javad Oji said on Monday.

“Despite the significant temperature decline in the country in recent days, none of the country's 4,200 gas stations suffered from disruptions or fuel shortages,” Oji told reporters on the sidelines of a visit to the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) Dispatching Center.

“My colleagues at Iran's National Oil Products Refining and Distribution Company, along with providing gasoline around the clock, have also efficiently supplied the country's power plants with liquid fuel these days,” the official added.
