MOSCOW (Bloomberg) – Iran will start shipping gas through a pipeline
to Armenia in January, the Tehran Times reported Sunday, citing an
Iranian official.

About 1 million cubic meters of natural gas will be shipped daily
through the 160-kilometer pipeline, said Mohammad-Reza Akbari, the
managing director of Payandan, the company operating the pipeline.

That will increase to 3 million cubic meters per day "later on,"
he said.
