After platforms B and C have become operational in Phase 12 of South Pars, the production from this phase will rise to 70 mcm/d, the news agency added.

Phase 12 of South Pars is planned to produce 75 mcm/d of rich gas for delivery to national pipeline and liquefied natural gas (LNG) production plants. The national pipeline will receive 25 mcm/d of gas with the rest going to LNG plants.

This phase is also forecasted to produce 120,000 b/d of gas condensate and 750 tons a day of sulfur.
