HOUSTON, Apr. 14 -- Petrochemical Industries Development Management Co., an affiliate of Iran's National Petrochemical Corp., awarded a 25 billion yen contract to an international consortium for engineering, procurement, and technical assistance in the construction of a fertilizer complex in Iran's Bandar Assaluyeh region.
The complex, one of the world's largest, will include an ammonia plant with daily production capacity of 2,050 tonnes and a urea plant with a daily capacity of 3,250 tonnes. It is the second fertilizer complex to be built in that area for NPC.
Members of that consortium include Toyo Engineering Corp., Chiba, Japan; Chiyoda Corp., Yokohama; and Petrochemical Industries Design & Engineering Co., Shiraz, Iran. Mitsui & Co. Ltd. is working in cooperation with the consortium, officials said.
The fertilizer complex is scheduled for completion in 2006. It will use natural gas from the South Pars field as feedstock, said officials.
