Successful Commissioning of Two Electropumps at Mehraran Pumping Station

The 26-inch Bandar Abbas–Sirjan–Rafsanjan Pipeline Project, one of Iran’s strategic oil industry infrastructure projects, is being implemented with the aim of increasing petroleum products transportation capacity, developing energy infrastructure, and ensuring a reliable fuel supply across the country.

Upon completion, the project will increase the country’s petroleum products transportation capacity by 300,000 barrels per day. It will also contribute significantly to enhancing energy security while reducing the need for approximately 1,500 daily road tanker trips, thereby helping to mitigate associated environmental and safety risks.

On July 27, 2026 (5 Mordad 1405), as part of the ongoing commissioning and operationalization of the project, and following a request from the operator, two electropumps at the Mehraran Pumping Station were successfully commissioned and brought into operation.

The commissioning of these two pumps has added 100,000 barrels per day to the petroleum products transportation capacity of the national transmission network, marking another significant step toward the full operation of this strategic national project.

The successful commissioning represents an important milestone in the project’s progress and further strengthens the country’s petroleum products transportation infrastructure and energy supply network.
