Siraf Port Expansion on Track

Operations to complete two storage tanks and a jetty for loading and exporting sulfur from Siraf Pars Port on the Persian Gulf coast are underway, the National Iranian Oil Company’s director for integrated planning said.
“The projects are expected to become operational by the yearend, following which vessels with a capacity of 50,000 tons of sulfur can berth at the storage tank whose loading capacity is 1,000 tons per hour,” Karim Zobeidi was also quoted as saying by the Oil Ministry’s news agency. 
The construction of the facilities is being handled by Iranian experts and engineers and the first sulfur storage tank with a capacity of 43,000 tons will come on stream in March 2023, he added.
