Speaking at a meeting with CEOs of petrochemical holding companies,
Abbaszadeh highlighted the importance of synergy across the sector, noting,
"Fortunately, there is strong cooperation and coordination among holding
companies and petrochemical firms, and we are working together to address
challenges and resolve industry issues."
He stressed the necessity of collaboration in securing inter-company
feedstock supplies, stating that while NPC has taken effective measures with
holding companies, the companies themselves must negotiate solutions to ensure
timely feedstock delivery for their complexes.
Abbaszadeh also pointed to the potential impact of holding companies’
participation in oil and gas field development projects, which could play a
crucial role in meeting the feedstock needs of the petrochemical sector.
Negotiations over some fields are ongoing, and he expressed optimism that
agreements would soon be finalized.
The NPC chief added that a thorough review of permits for existing
projects is underway, with significant progress already made. He called on
holding companies to reassess their plans as necessary.
Regarding industry events such as domestic and international
exhibitions and conferences, Abbaszadeh proposed the creation of a unified annual
calendar in collaboration with holding companies to streamline planning and
execution. He suggested that public relations managers organize specialized
meetings to ensure proper coordination.
Touching on leadership appointments in the sector, he underlined the
importance of prioritizing professional qualifications, emphasizing that
managerial roles should be assigned based on expertise, commitment, and
competence.
During the meeting, CEOs of the petrochemical holding companies shared
their perspectives on industry challenges and reiterated the need for
collective support to overcome obstacles.
