Iran Press/ Iran News: This Creative Event of Petroleum Ministry has just inaugurated in the Research Center of Petroleum Industry by the attendance of Petroleum Minister Bijan Namdar Zangeneh and lasts for three days (16,17,18 December).
Bijan Namdar Zangeneh also paid a visit to the Supply and Demand exhibition which is held on the sideline of this event.
Zangeneh stated in his speech that the Petroleum ministry has taken good steps in strengthening the oil industry.
"For example, we have created new majors related to oil in our university and have tried to empower the relationship between universities and the oil industry. In this regard, 26 projects have been implemented which their first phases have been finished and the second phase is in process," the high ranking official went on to say.
The research center is a venue for researchers who want to work in the oil industry.
The minister added: "We also support startups and knowledge-based companies and 100 billion Toman has been allocated to it."
Zangeneh stated: "We are going to guarantee to purchase the products of producers necessary for oil industry provided that they can take the necessary standards and quality licenses. This is a new development which gives hope to the producer because as the production begins we will not let the ministry's related organizations purchase a similar product from foreign countries."
The minister expressed his full support of knowledge-based companies and underlined that he would share his experience and hopeful about Iran's creative youth.
