Background
Iran Gas Trunkline-11 (IGAT-11) is an under construction gas transmission pipeline that would be operated by National Iranian Gas Company. IGAT-11 is a part of the Iran Gas Trunkline, more broadly - a series of large diameter pipelines constructed from areas in southern Iran to centers of consumption in Northern Iran.[3] It helps the country to meet its ever-growing domestic gas demand from its power, industrial, petrochemicals, and residential sectors, the project was expected to start operations in 2025.[6] Other sources reported 2026 as the start date.[5]
Early plans for the pipeline involved a route from Asaluyeh to Damghan where it would tie in with the Mashhad-Tehran pipeline. However, by 2021 the route had changed to run to Yazd instead as an extension of IGAT-7. In 2022, it was reported that the construction of IGAT-11 was "in limbo".[7] In 2023, it was reported that the project had been suspended due to "lack of gas".[4] The project remains listed as suspended on Iranian sites, but no further news updates have been provided.[8][2]
