What PIDMCO(Petrochemical Industries Development Management Company) does

PIDMCO (Petrochemical Industries Development Management Company) is the designated executive arm of the Persian Gulf Petrochemical Industries Group (PGPIC), Iran's largest petrochemical holding company. Operating with approximately 30 years of accumulated experience (founded circa 1995), the company provides integrated project management, engineering, procurement, and construction services for petrochemical complexes, oil and gas refineries, and pipeline infrastructure across Iran. Its primary clients are PGPIC-member petrochemical companies, and it acquires projects through competitive public tendering processes and direct assignments negotiated with the parent group. The company is headquartered in Tehran's Vanak district and operates project sites throughout Khuzestan, Bushehr, and Golestan provinces.

The company's service portfolio spans the full project lifecycle, delivered through multiple contract formats including EPCC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Commissioning), EPsEP+C, and PC (Procurement and Construction) arrangements. Core service modules include general contracting, project management in the Management Contractor (MC) role, consulting, basic and detailed engineering design, licensing support, workshop engineering and quality control, investment feasibility studies, and tendering and supplier network management. PIDMCO operates an Integrated Management System certified to ISO 9001:2015 (quality), ISO 14001:2015 (environment), ISO 45001:2018 (occupational health and safety), ISO 30401:2018 (knowledge management), and ISO 31000:2018 (risk management). The company has executed major petrochemical projects including methanol, HDPE, PVC, olefins, ammonia/urea, brine and seawater pipelines, flare gas recovery, and LPG loading systems.

PIDMCO generates revenue primarily through B2B enterprise contracts for petrochemical project execution in Iran, with individual project values ranging from hundreds of millions to multiple trillions of Iranian Rials per engagement. Its go-to-market combines competitive public tendering via Iran's electronic procurement systems and direct negotiation with PGPIC group companies. In fiscal year 1404 (2025-2026), the company reported a 67% revenue increase and more than doubled signed contract value year-over-year, completed 5 projects, and acquired 10 new projects. In 1403, PIDMCO expanded scope to include license management and basic design services to reduce dependency on foreign technology constrained by international sanctions. The company has no public listing and operates as a private joint-stock company under PGPIC ownership.
