The $40 million platform was built a company owned by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and funded by the Iranian government. If this is the standard to be expected from the IRGC then maybe fears of a blockade in the Straits of Hormuz are unfounded.
A giant natural gas field exists under Qatar and the south-western part of Iran, known as the South Pars/North Dome Gas-Condensate field. Qatar’s share gives them around 890 trillion cubic feet, equating to nearly 13% of the world’s total proven reserves; Iran on the other hand has 450 trillion cubic feet
