Iran keen on offshore energy projects in Europe, Africa

Xinhua, November 21, 2016 Adjust font size:

Iran said Monday it is ready to participate in offshore energy projects in the European and African countries, reported the semi-official Fars news agency.

"Iran is planning to cooperate with foreign companies by exporting technical and engineering services as well as participating in joint projects abroad," said Abolqasem Rahmani, Managing Director of Iran's Offshore Engineering and Construction Company (IOEC).

The IOEC already signed agreements with a Dutch company to exchange equipment for such projects, added Rahmani.

"Iran possesses unrivaled equipment and experience in offshore projects in the region, and the country is quite capable of exporting such services to other countries," he added. Endit
