Ali Kordan, who has recently been appointed as acting deputy oil minister, was assigned here on Saturday as the managing director of Iran’s National Gas Exports Company. Kordan is due to run both jobs simultaneously.
Kordan has replaced Nosratollah Seyfi who is currently in Islamabad to finalize a USD7.4 pipeline project which will take Iran’s gas to Pakistan and India known as IPI – or ‘Peace’ – Pipeline.
