TEHRAN (NIPNA) -- A senior official with the National Petrochemical Company (NPC) said petrochemical productivity of the country was sustainable despite April flash floods.

NPC’s Director of Production Control Ghodratollah Farajpour told reporters following a gathering of petrochemical executives on Sunday that despite the fact that the country was hit by several flash floods in the beginning months of the current calendar year, which began on March 21, productivity of the petrochemical sector was beyond last year levels.

“By good crisis management and timely repairing operations, five 300,000 ton ethylene production units came online immediately after the floods,” he said.

The official further said that the NPC was seriously seeking to ensure support for domestic manufacturers and industrialists in petrochemical projects.
