Petrochemical Plant Improves ICIS Ranking Despite Sanctions
TEHRAN (Shana) – The ICIS has ranked Iran’s Persian Gulf Petrochemical Industries Company (PGPIC) 35th in ICIS Top 100 Chemical Companies for 2019, three levels better than last year, despite the fact that PGPIC is targeted by the U.S. sanctions.
According to the National Petrochemical Company (NPC), the company was ranked 38th in the world in the 2018 ICIS listing. The improvement comes despite the re-imposition of U.S. unilateral sanctions on Iran.
In a statement, PGPIC CEO Jafar Rabiei congratulated his personnel for this remarkable achievement, emphasizing that U.S. sanctions had no effect on the development of the sector.
