Ali Mohammad Bossaqzadeh, director of production control at National Petrochemical Company (NPC), has told NIPNA that the two projects, located in the southwestern city of Ahwaz and the western city of Sanandaj, will become operational in the near future.
The stations will pump the ethylene provided by Kavian Petrochemical Plant in southwest of Iran to the West Ethylene Pipeline that carries feedstock to 12 petrochemical plants along its route to the northwestern province of Azarbaijan.
Bossaqzaden said the stations will become operational within the next month.
Inauguration of the two stations will provide more feedstock to Lorestan, Ilam, Kermanshah Polymer, Kurdistan and Mahabad petrochemical plants all located in western territories of the country.
Once phases I and II of Kavian Petrochemical Plant become operational, more feedstock will be available to the plants fed by the facility in western Iran.
