The National Iranian Drilling Company has currently become a hub of violations and corruption, where familiar names and new faces with special connections have reached high managerial levels. This report examines a chain of serious violations within this company that clearly demonstrates the depth of the disaster.
Suspicious Appointments and Sudden Promotions
In one of the most controversial sections of this report, the sudden changes in the status of contract workers are highlighted, who have unexpectedly been appointed to high-grade managerial positions from departments like the printing house. These abrupt changes, especially in cases where an individual without managerial background is appointed as the head of travel affairs, raise many questions.
The name of Saeed Noorouz Soltani has also come up; an individual who, due to his connections in Tehran and the support of the former CEO, has been appointed as the financial manager. During his management, financial problems and embezzlements related to oil cards have significantly increased, and hiring outside of regulations and appointing problematic individuals to sensitive positions has become commonplace.
Continued Corruption Despite Dismissal
Despite the dismissal of Makvandi from the CEO position, reports indicate that the violations of the personnel appointed by him continue to this day. These individuals, relying on familial connections and informal networks, continue to perpetuate the chain of corruption.
This situation not only damages the credibility of the National Iranian Drilling Company but also serves as a warning for the entire oil and gas industry in Iran. Will this chain of corruption be cut soon?
