Iran, holder of the world\u2019s largest natural gas reserves, says it will start exports to Iraq next month, more than a year later than it originally planned.<\/p>\n

“Shipments will start at 7 million cubic meters a day to supply a power plant in Baghdad,” Hamidreza Araqi, director of the National Iranian Gas Company, said in an interview with ISNA, Bloomberg reported.<\/p>\n

A second route to Basra will be opened in 2017, with shipments eventually reaching 70 million cubic meters a day.<\/p>\n

Iran is boosting crude oil and natural gas exports after international sanctions were eased in January. While its crude output has rebounded faster than expected, the natural gas exports to Iraq have taken more time. The National Iranian Gas Export Company said in 2014 it would start exports to Iraq the following year.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are most of the way there,\u201d Richard Mallinson, an analyst at Energy Aspects in London, said by phone on Monday. \u201cIraq desperately needs gas for its power stations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Iran has natural gas reserves of 34 billion cubic meters, almost 40% more than Qatar, the world\u2019s biggest exporter of liquefied natural gas, according to BP Plc.<\/p>\n

By converting gas into LNG, producers can ship by tanker to markets not linked by pipelines. Iran\u2019s natural gas network is already linked to Turkey. Output at South Pars in Iran will be 540 million cubic meters a day by the end of this year, from 430 million cubic meters a day currently. For Iraq, gas imports can fuel its power plants, helping to alleviate blackouts and freeing up more of its oil for export.<\/p>\n
