DUBAI (Reuters) – A unit of the National Iranian Oil Co. (NIOC) signed a deal with a local firm on Sunday to build a crude oil storage facility near Iran’s southeastern port of Jask with an initial investment of 200 million euros ($232 million), the oil ministry news website SHANA reported.

State-run NIOC’s subsidiary Petroleum Engineering and Development Co. (PEDEC) signed the agreement with Petro Omid Asia Co. to build the facility with a total capacity of 10 million barrels on a build-operate-transfer (BOT) basis in Jask, which is located on the Gulf of Oman coast, SHANA said.
