Azerbaijan, Baku, Feb.2 / Trend F.Mehdi/
Iran earns $1.5 million per day from developing Sarvestan and Saadatabad oilfields, which are located in central parts of the country, ISNA quoted the National Iranian Central Oilfields Company managing director Mehdi Fakour as saying.
The two fields hold around 1.242 billion barrels of in-situ crude oil, Fakour added.
Each of the fields is estimated to yield 15,000 barrels of oil per day, he noted.
The National Iranian Oil Company managing director Ahmad Qalebani said that the country's daily oil and gas outputs should amount to five million barrels and 1.47 billion cubic meters respectively by 2015.
In August 2011, Oil Minister Rostam Qasemi said the Iranian government should consider plans for the development of joint oilfields.
The government should increase budgets for the development of joint oilfields, Qasemi added. "The oil industry's infrastructure needs more than 500 trillion rials (about $41 billion) of investment to achieve objectives of the 20-Year Outlook Plan," Qasemi was quoted as saying.
