The Fire Team, which represented KOC through Abdulrahman Al-Failakawi and Mohammed Al-Qallaf, faced off against experienced teams during the challenge. However, the pair was able to achieve one of the top positions at the competition despite the strong competition.

 


Al-Failakawi finished eighth in the final standings of the tournament while Al-Qallaf came 17th among 100 of some of the best firefighters from around the world. Extremely challenging qualifying games had to be won before the two could compete in the final rounds.

KOC’s Fire Team is one of the most outstanding teams in its field. The Fire Team enjoys worldwide recognition for its efforts and experience, and it has recorded many local, regional and global achievements that deal with fire safety and prevention.
