Dozens of Petrochemical Plants Could Be Built in Kermanshah
TEHRAN (Shana) - Iranian Minister of Petroleum Bijan Zangeneh has said dozens of petrochemical plants could be established in the western province of Kermanshah.
Addressing a conference to introduce investment opportunities in the province of Kermanshah, Zangeneh said the province’s geography was one of its advantages, adding dozens of downstream petrochemicals plants could be built there.
He said development projects of Iran’s western provinces were intertwined to each other and a package needed to be devised for so doing.
"The geographic location of this province and its proximity to the neighboring provinces, as well as with Baghdad, has given it a key role in the region.”
He said petroleum products could be processed in western parts of the country to be exported to regional countries.
