Asked about the plant\u2019s feedstock, he said the complex requires 560 million cubic meters of natural gas per annum, which is supplied by the cross-country pipeline, aka Iran Gas Trunkline.<br \/> \tThe official added that the complex has an installed annual production capacities of 396,000 tons of ammonia and 660,000 tons of granular urea, with related utility units.<br \/> \tAshtari noted that the implementation of the second phase of this complex is already on the company\u2019s agenda, as it will raise the production capacity of ammonia and urea by 2,400 and 4,000 tons per day respectively, contributing to the income of the region through increased valuation of natural gas and further job generation.<\/p>\n<p> \t\u00a0 Highly-Used Petrochemicals<br \/> \tThe county is set to become one of the largest domestic producers of highly-used petrochemicals, ethylene, as the building block for a vast range of chemicals, propylene, thermoplastic polymer with wide applications in packaging, textiles, laboratory equipment and automotive components.<br \/> \tIran is expanding its petrochemical industry to generate more revenue from chemicals and petrochemicals that offer higher value-added compared to the raw sale of crude oil and natural gas.<br \/> \tPetrochemical is Iran\u2019s most important industry after oil and gas. State-owned National Petrochemical Company hopes to lift nominal output capacity to 120 million tons per annum by 2022, the end of Iran\u2019s Sixth Five-Year Economic Development Plan.<br \/> \tIran\u2019s petrochemical production is forecast to reach 60 million tons by March 2018, as nominal output capacity is set to reach 72 million tons upon the launch of a slew of projects. Petrochemical exports also exceeded 7 million tons in the first four months of the current fiscal year (March 21-July 22), generating $3.5 billion.<br \/> \tThe country exported 7.188 million tons of petrochemicals and polymers, up nearly 5% from 6.84 million tons in the same period of last year, according to National Petrochemical Company data.<br \/> \tTehran earned $9.55 billion in revenues from petrochemical exports last year, official data show.
