Under a cabinet decree, Iranian urea producers must supply about 30%
of their output as subsidised fertiliser to the Agriculture Ministry. The price
gap between this fixed rate and the market-clearing price on the Iran
Mercantile Exchange is to be settled by the government after audits and
confirmation by the ministry.
Parsian said the claims covered sales in 2024 by petrochemical plants
including Pardis, Shiraz, Kermanshah, Khorasan, Razi and Lordegan. Recording
the receivables is expected to ease liquidity constraints, support continuous
production and improve financial transparency, the company said.
The achievement comes amid feed gas supply limits, rising production
costs and tight liquidity in Iran’s petrochemical sector. Industry officials
say timely settlement of such receivables is vital for operational stability
and expansion.
