Iran Press/ Iran news: Javad Owji, who paid a one-day visit to the southwestern province of Khuzestan on Tuesday to inaugurate several projects on the occasion of the Ten Day Fajr ceremonies, said that the contracts which are worth $14 billion will lead to an increase in production, exports, revenues, and job opportunities.
Touching upon the Ibn Sina petrochemical project in Andimeshk, Khuzestan Province, the minister said the project, which had been left undecided for 14 years, will be implemented in 36 months according to a pledge made by Persian Gulf Petrochemical Industries Company (PGPIC) Managing Director Abdolali Ali-Askari.
Ethylene oxide, a key product, will be among the products of Ibn Sina Petrochemical Company, said Owji, underlining that the country will no longer import it when the project becomes operational.
According to him, $300 million will be invested to carry out the petrochemical project’s executive operations.
