TEHRAN (NIPNA) – A member of the Iranian parliament said that the development of the petrochemical industry could generate value added while creating jobs inside the country.

Speaking to NIPNA, Ali Ghorbani said underlined the important role that the petrochemical industry played in the country’s economic development, especially under the sanctions, adding that the sector could be instrumental in the economic development of the county.

“The petrochemical industry can be effective in the upward trend of the country’s economic development and the upstream and downstream development of the sector could generate jobs,” the MP said.

He further added that the sale of crude oil and gas needed to be curbed in Iran, adding end-used items needed to be produced instead for creation of more value added in the industry.

Ghorbani also voiced the parliament’s support for development of petrochemical projects in the country.
