Oil tanker vehicles to be equipped with monitoring systems within two years: NIORDC
Farzad Barzegar, adviser to the NIORDC managing director, said the initiative prioritizes close monitoring of pipelines, tankers and refineries to boost efficiency and curb risks, including fuel smuggling. “All of the country’s oil tankers will be equipped with real-time monitoring systems within two years,” he said, ILNA reported.
Until the 1990s, oil transfers to refineries, refining operations, nationwide fuel distribution, and construction of refineries, pipelines and telecom networks were handled separately. But in 1991, the NIORDC was created to integrate those activities, Barzgar said.
The NIORDC official said that after 35 years, the company had reached a point where, given the scale of its fuel supply and distribution operations, digitalization and smart management of Iran’s petroleum supply chain had become a top priority.
