TEHRAN, Dec.16 (ISNA)-Iran is ready to export gas to Armenia in
January and February 2007 based on the 23 billion and 800 million
dollars worth Iran-Armenia gas pipeline construction contract.

"Although the domestic contract deadline between Iran’s national gas
company and the supervisor of the project was marked September 2007,
but after the protocol between Iranian and Armenian officials was
signed, the project period decreased from 930 to 650 days," stated
Iran-Armenia gas pipeline construction executive, Mohammad Reza
Lorzadeh.

"We have succeeded with an effort to decrease the project time up to
300 days and we shall have the experimental installation of gas
pipeline by January," he added while noting the conclusions of the
referred protocol.

He also informed that the gas export transfer would take place
through both land and water. Lorzadeh acknowledged that presently 113
km of the pipeline construction project from Tabriz to Nordouz
(before Iran-Armenia borderline) was covered through mountain
regions. He also said that constructing the pipeline under the Aras
River and stabilizing the borderline was another part of the project.
