.
It is one of the NIOC Recent Discoveries which was discovered in 2006 and holds 66 cu ft (1.868911902E-08 km³) of gas in place of which 50 cu ft (1.41584235E-08 km³) is recoverable.
The field also holds at least 1 Goilbbl of condensate of which at least 331 Moilbbl are recoverable.
The field gas is sweet, it contains 50-80 PPM hydrogen sulphide.
The field has the potential of producing 4000 million cubic meters of natural gas per day.
In February 2010, an Iranian consortium headed by Bank Mellat
signed a $10-billion agreement with the National Iranian Oil Company
(NIOC) to develop the Kish gas field. The gas field will produce 85 million cubic meters of natural gas per day
