TEHRAN (NIPNA) -- A petrochemical official said that the West Ethylene Pipeline would resume delivery of feedstock to petrochemical plants in western Iran soon.

Speaking to NIPNA, Ghodratollah Farajpour, the director of production control at the National Petrochemical Company (NPC), said efforts were being exerted for repairing the pipeline, which was damaged by heavy flooding and ensuing landslides in western Iran recently.

Flooding has killed at least 70 in Iran over the past three weeks.

The strategic pipeline supplies feedstock for dozens of petrochemical plants in western Iran.

“Undoubtedly, all the means have been mobilized to repair the pipeline as soon as possible,” he said.
