Description

Description

The principal aim of the Dead Sea Industrial Exports Project is to assist the Government in developing industrial production and export capacity. The Bank will support the government's strategy in its critical efforts to improve Jordan's balance of payments. The project has two components. The first will support a substantial increase in Jordan's potash export capacity from the current 1.4 million tons annually to 1.8 million tons. This will be achieved through optimization of Arab Potash Company's (APC) existing plant. Implementation of this component is an important step in APC's further financial recovery, enabling the Company, once it has established a track record of consistent profits, to attract private capital for its future investment programs. The project will finance, under international competitive bidding procedures, centrifuges and other process equipment and an expansion of water supply. The second component will help the Government and APC through limited use of consultant advisory services to formulate an investment strategy for developing new chemical industries based on Dead Sea brine.
