Our Strategic Objectives
Relying on the experience and capabilities of local experts, Sabalan Petrochemical Company seeks development and progress in the production of clean fuel based on better solutions. We believe that the rising living standards of the world’s growing population will probably increase demand for energy and strategic petrochemical products. On the other hand, global climate change requires a global transformation to achieve a low-carbon system. Considering the predictable shortage of energy resources in the future, further emphasis is being placed on the production of methanol as a clean fuel and a key product in the production of hydrogen fuel cells. As a result, the strategic objective of Sabalan Petrochemical Company is to produce high-quality methanol for supply to global markets.
