Iran-Armenia gas pipeline will be inaugurated this autumn. “Things
are going well, previous to this we predicted that we would start
utilizing this project in the ending days of December 2006, but now
we hope to finish this project and inaugurate it at the first days of
December,” said Armenian Ministry of Energy’s Technical Development
and Foreign Affairs Central Office Manager.

Exporting gas to Armenia would be the third natural gas export contract
after Turkey and Emirate which has been signed in the past 12 months.
