" With an aggressive investment program under way, NPC is on the verge of becoming a
new global force in petrochemicals. The expansion under way is backed by extensive availability
of feedstock sources in the country [Iran] ".
John Baker, European Chemical News (ECN)
" Having increased petrochemical production more than ten-fold over the past decade, Iran remains ambitious,
with a production target of 50 million tonnes a year by 2015 ".
Oliver Klaus, The Middle East Business Weekly (MEED)
" It is Iran's massive feedstock potential which will underpin growth in the petrochemical sector. Iran possesses
18% of the world's total gas reserves, but only produces 3% of the world's natural gas. Iran is determined to raise
its natural gas production from about 300m m3/day to 500m m3/day by 2005 ".
