据Gulf News网站1月31日安卡拉报道,Seda周刊30日援引一名归咎于获得签证延期的高级政府官员的话报道说,伊朗已经取消了伦敦国际会议,伊朗原计划在伦敦国际会议上向投资者介绍新的油气合同。
伦敦石油合同国际会议原计划在今年2月22日至24日在英国首都伦敦举行。由于国际社会对伊朗实施制裁的不确定性,此次会议已被推迟了5次。
伊朗国家石油公司副主管阿里?卡尔多尔对Seda周刊记者说,外国公司现在将被邀请在5月份投标新的伊朗石油合同(IPCs)。
卡尔多尔说,伦敦石油合同国际会议被取消的主要原因是英国驻德黑兰大使馆因其签证部门迄今还没有开始运作而无法向伊朗公司代表签发签证。

IRAN CANCELS LONDON OIL CONTRACT CONFERENCE OVER VISAS -SEDA
Gulf News
January 31, 2016
Ankara
Iran has cancelled a London conference where it was set to introduce new oil and gas contracts to investors, the Seda weekly reported on Saturday citing a senior Iranian official who blamed a delay in getting visas.
Postponed five times amid uncertainty over international sanctions against Iran which were lifted this month, the conference had been set for February 22-24.
Foreign companies will now be invited in May to bid for the new Iran Petroleum Contracts (IPCs), Ali Kardor, deputy head of the National Iranian Oil Co. (NIOC), told the weekly.
“The London conference has been cancelled because the British embassy in Tehran could not issue visas for representatives of Iranian companies as its visa section has yet to become active,” Kardor said.
