So far no projects have been developed by Iran and Indonesia together, he added
Indonesia is particularly interested in Iran’s development of a Liquefied Petroleum Gas plant (LPG) which currently can produce up to 51 million tonnes a year.
Iran was also evaluated as a potential market to Indonesian investors to venture into the fertilizer industry in Iran’s southern region bordering Pakistan.
In order to strengthen bilateral cooperation, a delegation of Iranian energy is scheduled to visit Indonesia in February to seek business opportunities.-VNA
