After the Israeli strike - Iran is rehabilitating the strategic energy facility

Iran announced it has completed 70% of the restoration of the refinery at Phase 14 of the South Pars gas field, which was damaged in an Israeli strike in June 2025. The facility, whose damage halted production of about 12 million cubic meters of gas per day, is expected to return to full operation by the end of the year. The move aims to restore gas output vital to Iran's energy economy.

Iran announced it has completed 70% of the restoration of the refinery at Phase 14 of the South Pars gas field, which was damaged in an Israeli strike in June 2025. The facility was hit in an attack that caused a fire and temporarily halted part of its operations. According to estimates published at the time, the damage stopped production of about 12 million cubic meters of gas per day. Phase 14 was designed to process over 56 million cubic meters of gas per day and also produce tens of thousands of barrels of condensate, a liquid hydrocarbon mixture of high economic value. In recent months, Iran has been working to restore the gas output damaged in the strikes. At the end of May, Dehghani announced that three offshore platforms in South Pars had resumed gas production. According to him, the platforms themselves were not damaged, but their operations were halted because the onshore processing facilities to which the gas was transferred were damaged. To bypass the problem, output was diverted to other refineries in the area, alongside restoration work at Phase 14. The move aims to allow continued gas flow even when some infrastructure is shut down for repairs. The field's importance to Iran's economy is particularly high, as much of the country's electricity, industry, and heating rely on natural gas, and any prolonged drop in output could worsen shortages during peak demand seasons.
