Persian Gulf Star Refinery Switching to Sweet Naphtha

Persian Gulf Star Refinery in Bandar Abbas in southern Hormozgan Province has halted production of sour naphtha and henceforth all flammable oils produced at this refinery will be sweet, the managing director said.
The refinery has produced both sour and sweet naphtha so far, but because of changes in planning it will now produce only sweet naphtha,” the Oil Ministry news service Shana quoted Mohammad-Ali Dadvar as saying.
By the end of April, the plant will produce 20,000 barrels of sweet naphtha per day, “and the output will be used as feedstock for petrochemical companies,” he added.
