Chemical and Petrochemical Opportunities in Iran
Iran is an energy superpower
At 2006 levels of production, oil proceeds represented about 18.7
percent of gross domestic product (GDP)
The oil and gas industry has been the engine of economic growth,
directly affecting public development projects, the government’s
annual budget, and most foreign exchange sources.
In FY 2009, the sector accounted for 60 percent of total
government revenues and 80 percent of the total annual value of
both exports and foreign currency earnings

In 2012, Iran, which exports around 1.5 million barrels of crude oil
a day, was the second-largest exporter among the Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC)
Iran's annual oil and gas revenues could reach $250 billion by 2015
Iran plans to invest a total of $500 billion in the oil sector before
2025
Iran’s Natural gas 32.3 trillion cubic meters of proven natural gas
reserves in 2006
Natural gas production will reach 700 million cubic meter/day by
2012 and 900 million cubic meter/day by 2015
Chemical and Petrochemical Opportunities in Iran
Iran set a goal of increasing its natural gas production capacity to
300 billion cubic meters by 2015
Following the discovery of a large gas deposit in the Caspian sea
(The Sardar Jangal gas field) in 2011 estimated at 50 trillion cubic feet
(some 1.4 trillion cubic meters), Iran could rank first in the world
in terms of gas reserves

The National Petrochemical Company
(NPC) Founded in 1964, NPC began its
activities by operating a small fertilizer plant in
Shiraz, Iran petrochemical industry dates back
to 1963. The first petrochemical complex to
produce fertilizer kicked off then.
Today, NPC is the second largest producer and exporter of
petrochemicals in the Middle East.
Petrochemicals, Output capacity in 2006 was estimated at 15
million tons, and more than 40 mil tone in 2010 and plan to reach
100 mil tone by 2015.

Chemical and Petrochemical Opportunities in Iran
Receiving 30 percent of Iran’s petrochemical exports between
China and India were the major trading partners in this industry.
Iran’s petrochemical industries have absorbed a large amount of
private and public investment In the early 2000s, 43 percent of
these investments was financed by NPC.
Another 53 percent is owned by foreign creditors (more than 100
foreign banks and foreign companies), 3 percent by banks, and 1
percent by the capital market.

Three special economic zones on the northern coast of the Persian
Gulf have been developed to be home to the NPC’s new project.
These three zones enjoy :
• good access to feedstock,
• infrastructural facilities,
• local and international markets,
• skilled manpower,
• ports.
