EghtesadOnline: The launch of a gas pipeline stretching from the city of Damghan in Semnan Province to Neka in Mazandaran Province next week will end the country’s need for gas imports from Turkmenistan, managing director of the National Iranian Gas Company said.

EghtesadOnline: A member of Majlis (Parliament) Energy Commission has said that Iran should no longer be dependent on any other country to meet its gas demands since such dependency is against the country's national dignity.
