Mr. Zangeneh said over IRR 14,000 billion was invested in the project; an investment which will be continued with other such industrial projects in the province.
"Western Iran is turning into the third petrochemical hub in the country as new facilities are being developed in the region," said the official.
Once all these projects become operational, and given the output of the projects that were inaugurated during the previous calendar year that ended on March 20, a total of 9.5 million ton of petrochemicals will be added to Iran's annual petrochemical output, added Mr. Zangeneh.
KPP is financed by €257m and IRR3,800 and is touted as one of the key petrochemical projects in western Iran that was developed in line with Economic Resilience instructed by Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei in order to generate jobs and produce value-added items in western, less developed provinces of the country.
