The MOU was signed
in a ceremony held on the sidelines of the 24th Iran Oil Show in Tehran
and was attended by the head of RIPI as well as the chairman of Exir Novin Company.
Once fully
implemented, this project will make Iran a licensor for designing such strategic
units.
Updating the
technical savvy of isomerisation process, cooperation in market development
and the sale of technological know-how of the process are among the most
important articles of the memorandum.
During the ceremony,
Dr. Jafar Tofighi, RIPI head, said the institute, as the research arm of the Iranian
Ministry of Petroleum, was in close contact with Exir Novin Company, adding the
deal focused on isomerization units that are key units in refineries and petrochemical
plants.
