The Islamic Republic of Iran possessing 15% of the world’s gas reserves and 9% of the world’s oil reserves, is the world's second and fourth richest country respectively.

This pioneering status is the outcome of planning, design and construction of about 30 major oil, gas and petrochemical complexes, with the cooperation of specialized foreign investors, and optimum utilization of up to date know-how and technology of these industries locally, particularly in Pars Special Economic Energy Zone. We are now seeking to consolidate our status by entering regional and international markets and taking further steps towards social, economic, and industrial development.

To this end, establishment and commissioning of Pars Special Economic Energy Zone is especially significant. This zone, with its 10,000 hectares of developable lands, was established in 1998 to exploit the oil and gas of South Pars and other related activities, and is positioned approximately 100 kilometers from Qatar’s northern dome. Iran's share of the gas field is 450 trillion cubic feet, which is equal to 6.8% of the world’s gas.

Therefore we take this opportunity to encourage all businessmen, industrialists, oil, gas and petrochemical companies, financing institutions, service suppliers, particularly manufacturers of industrial products and all those interested in investing in the mentioned industries, to take advantage of the opportunities and potentials offered by Pars Special Economic Energy Zone. We strongly recommend our proposal for establishing earnest collaboration in international markets and active partnership between Iranian and foreign companies in project management, service rendering and manufacturing of products competitive in the global market through this zone.
