Heidarzadeh emphasized that the move allows Iran\u2019s Arya Sasol to avoid external financing while accelerating construction and delivering stronger returns to shareholders upon startup.<\/p>\n<p>Currently producing 1.1 million tons of ethylene and 750,000 tons of polyethylene annually, the new unit will deepen synergy with existing ethylene output and position Iran\u2019s Arya Sasol to better navigate export and domestic demand shifts.<\/p>\n<p>With the tenth olefin furnace nearing completion and the C3-plus separation project advancing in parallel, Heidarzadeh underscored that these initiatives, backed by the fresh capital, will eliminate production bottlenecks, boost value recovery, and solidify Iran\u2019s Arya Sasol\u2019s competitive edge in the years ahead.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-date no-social-btn post-updated\">Updated on<time class=\"updated dt-updated\" itemprop=\"dateModified\" datetime=\"2025-11-30T04:13:38+00:00\"> 30 November 2025<\/time><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arya Sasol Polymer Company has approved a 150% capital increase from retained earnings to fund three strategic projects that expand capacity and strengthen long-term profitability amid global market challenges.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16217,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[47,22,36,19,21,35],"tags":[],"services":[],"class_list":["post-16215","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking-news","category-iran","category-lastnews","category-news","category-petrochemical","category-topnews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16215","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16215"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16215\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16217"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16215"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16215"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16215"},{"taxonomy":"services","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roydadnaft.ir\/English\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services?post=16215"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
