Petchem value chain completion easy task
Completing the value chain of the petrochemical industry is crucial for Iran. From the standpoint of value creation, it would be possible to enhance national revenue by supplying petrochemical products of high value-added. On the other hand, it would be possible to develop the petrochemical industry to end dependence on imports for supplying domestic needs, which would in turn reduce dependence on crude oil and natural gas sales. The petrochemical projects operated under the 13th administration are all aimed at value chain completion. Implementation of these projects would result in the supply of 21 products in line with the value chain completion. National Petrochemical Company (NPC) expects to accelerate implementation of these projects by engaging holdings and investors.
