EghtesadOnline: Export of petrochemicals increased 5% in the first ten months of this year (March 2019-Feb 2020) compared to the same period last year, a spokesman of the Iranian Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Products Exporters' Union said.

EghtesadOnline: An estimated 1.5 million tons of petrochemicals were exported to Asia, Europe and Africa from Pars Special Economic Energy Zone, southeast of Bushehr Province, between May 22 and June 21, the head of customs office at PSEEZ said Saturday.

EghtesadOnline: The US sanctions on Iran’s oil sector has had no influence on petrochemical exports because the mechanism defined for exporting petrochemicals differs from crude oil export, the secretary general of Association of Petrochemical Employers Unions said.

EghtesadOnline: The central bank governor said volume of foreign currency trade in the secondary market amounted to €7.3 billion in the past two months. Abdolnaser Hemmati predicted that this amount would accelerate because the government has bestowed more power on the Central Bank of Iran to offer forex from petrochemical exports and other non-oil exporters in the secondary market, the regulator reported on its website on Saturday.

EghtesadOnline: The National Petrochemical Company's exports have witnessed a 75% hike in the last five years.
