Iranian Oil Minister Masoud Mir-Kazemi announced on Wednesday that his country's petrochemical plants would be capable of producing 14 million liters of gasoline daily in the event of fuel sanctions, according to a Press TV report.
Gasoline production in such plants is costly compared to the imported gasoline on which a percentage of Iran's domestic consumption currently relies, the oil minister was quoted as saying.
