Stage Set for Bigger Mokran Oil Role

Construction of petrochemical storage tanks in Mokran (also Makran) Petro-Refinery Complex will start in the port city of Jask in southern Hormozgan Province next week.
Both a refinery and a petrochemical plant, the facility will have a capacity of 350,000 barrels of crude oil per day and will produce gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, sulfur, butadiene, ethylene propylene polymer products, and monoethylene glycol, among others, IRNA reported.
Mokran is a coastal strip along the Persian Gulf and the Sea of Oman, stretching from Hormozgan to Sistan-Baluchestan Province in Iran and highly suitable for the expansion of the petrochemical industry.
