Speaking to NIPNA, Behzad Mohaghegh, referring to the
growing trend of petrochemical industry in our country, said given the technical
and engineering capabilities of domestic companies, this industry can grow rapidly
and Iranian companies and manufacturers have always been supportive of the petrochemical
industry.
He said the sanctions could be a great opportunity for
the petrochemical and downstream industries, if raw materials could be delivered
to the downstream sectors; then, the US sanctions would completely fail.
“Neighboring countries are desperately in
need of downstream Iranian petrochemical products, so the export of these
products to neighboring countries is urgently needed and the development of
infrastructures should facilitate the export of various complementary products,”
the official added.
