Referring to the news published by NIPNA (the official news agency for NPC) the latest two important news titles are: 1) Experts at Iran’s Amir Kabir Petrochemical Company successfully produced spare parts for FlowServe pumps, and 2) Iran is Capable of Building Sophisticated Items in and for the Petchem Industries.
1- Production of spare parts for FlowServe pumps
The project is aimed at maximizing domestic potentials in mending industrial pumps and tapping Iranian manufacturing capabilities. The pumps are regarded as strategic equipment used in various petrochemical activities, and given the fact that Iranian industries are targeted by US sanctions, developing the savvy to domestically repair the pumps is of urgent significance for the country.
By building the spare parts domestically, Iran would no longer need to import it. Based on the FlowServe website, the American company is the driving force in the global industrial pump marketplace. No other pump manufacturing company in the world has the depth or breadth of expertise in the successful application of pre-engineered, engineered, and special purpose pumps and systems. The NPC claims.
2- Iran is Capable of Building Sophisticated Items in and for the Petchem Industries
A member of the Society of Iranian Petroleum Industry Equipment Manufacturers (SIPIEM) said domestic manufacturers have made great achievements in building items and parts used in the industry.
Speaking to NIPNA, Ehsan Saghafi voiced the society’s support for the petrochemical industry, saying the industry played a key role in the country’s economy and prevented sale of crude oil and gas as well as raw materials.
He said Iran enjoyed massive potentialities in developing downstream industries, adding SIPIEM was ready to cooperate in this regard.
Saghafi said Iranian manufacturers had mastered production of sophisticated items and parts used in various sectors of the petroleum industry, adding the petrochemical sector has been able to generate revenues for the country despite the US sanctions on Iran.
“We view the petrochemical industry as a lucrative one whose development would help the development of other sectors,” he added.
