Iran Exports $1.8 Billion Technical, Engineering Services in 2 Years


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The chairman of Board of Directors of the Iran Water Industry Federation said the country exported $1.8 billion worth of technical and engineering services over the past two years.

Stressing the importance of exporting technical and engineering services, Reza Haj Karim said giant steps have been taken in the administration of President Ebrahim Raisi in the field as compared to the previous years.

Domestic knowledge-based companies have high potential to export technical and engineering services and can do even better with due support from the government, he underscored, IRNA reported.

Haj Karim further noted that Sri Lanka, Indonesia and East Asian countries are among those whose their economic growth is higher than the world average, so this Asian market can be a lucrative market for Iranian domestic companies.

As a leading country in the water and electricity industry, Iran stands in the first rank in the region in the export of technical and engineering services in this industry, and this shows the high technical and engineering knowledge and ability of Iranian specialists and companies.

Thanks to the efforts of the country's specialists in the years after the victory of the Islamic Revolution, Iran is now among the top five power plant turbine manufacturing countries in the world.
