Iran to Equip Road Transport-Oil Tankers with Electronic Devices

Mohammad Meshkinfam, the CEO of NIOEC, said that a comprehensive plan titled "Real-Time Monitoring of the Supply and Distribution Chain of Petroleum Products" has been defined at the company to install electronic locks and other equipment on oil tankers within nine months.

He noted that the primary goal of this plan is to combat fuel smuggling, but it also includes other objectives such as optimizing co-loading systems, increasing efficiency in monitoring refining, transfer, and distribution operations, developing infrastructure using modern technologies, and improving energy resource management.

Meshkinfam emphasized that optimal energy resource management is critical during crises, making it a key objective of the plan to optimize energy management and distribution across the country.

He added that significant and intensive measures have been taken over the past three months, and a general contractor will soon be selected to begin executive operations.

National Iranian Oil Engineering and Construction Company is responsible for the implementation of the Iran's infrastructure projects in the field of petroleum refining, petroleum and products pipelines and depots as well as Iran's joint venture overseas petroleum related projects.
