He announced that a portion of the financial resources required for
the Dehloran Petrochemical Project would be facilitated through the National
Development Fund of Iran (NDFI).
During his visit to the Dehloran Petrochemical Project on Wednesday,
Shahmirzai emphasized the significant role the project plays in generating
employment in the province and neighboring regions, branding it as a symbol of
the area's development and progress.
"We are resolute in prioritizing the provision of capital for the
Dehloran Petrochemical Project. Pursuant to the endeavors made by the National
Petrochemical Industries Company, part of the necessary financial resources for
this project will be facilitated through the National Development Fund,"
Shahmirzai stated.
Highlighting the need for expedited completion of the Dehloran Petrochemical
Project, Shahmirzai urged contractors involved in its implementation to
maximize their capacities to accelerate the project's construction.
"Our steadfast policy involves maximum utilization of domestic
builders' capabilities and strategizing for self-sufficiency in the
petrochemical industry. The Dehloran Petrochemical Project is one where all
equipment and required goods are provided by domestic companies,"
Shahmirzai added.
Detailing the project's two-phase plan with a total investment of 1.2
billion euros, Shahmirzai explained that the initial phase would see the
construction of the Alpha unit, followed by subsequent lower-tier projects. The
raw materials for the Dehloran Petrochemical chain will be sourced from NG 3100
and water from the Shahid Mahram (Doburj) Reservoir.
Shahmirzai's statements underscored the government's commitment to the
robust expansion of Iran's petrochemical sector, with a focus on leveraging
domestic resources for sustained growth and development.
