TEHRAN (NIPNA) -- Iran's National Petrochemical Company (NPC) said on Wednesday it had signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Environmental Protection Organization (EPO) to speed up the process of obtaining environmental permits for its development projects.

The MOU will be signed on Saturday at the 27th International Exhibition of Oil, Gas and Petrochemicals in Tehran, NPC's Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Director Davood Emadi told Nipna.

He said the first step in implementing development projects in the petrochemical industry was obtaining the necessary environmental permits, and the MOU aimed to facilitate this path by enhancing cooperation with the EPO.

Emadi also said the exhibition, which runs from May 17 to May 20, was an opportunity to turn threats into opportunities in domestic industries and in relation to foreign companies.

He said he expected more interaction with countries that Iran had treaties with, given the high level of the exhibition and the active presence of domestic and foreign activists and investors.
