According to media reports, Oil Minister Bijan Zanganeh reported that Iran’s Bu Ali Sina petrochemical complex in the city of Bandar Mahshahr will restart most of its units following a fire outbreak.
Zanganeh stated that many of the units will be restarted within the next two or three weeks, but that it will take time for the paraxylene tower to resume its operations.
The plant was shut because of a fire last Wednesday, but no fatalities occurred.
