The KOC Subaihiya Oasis recently served as the location for an Open Day event for employees from Kuwait’s Parliament. The event, organized by the Public Relations Department from Kuwait’s National Assembly, featured the participation of Parliament Speaker Marzouq Al-Ghanim and KOC CEO Hashem Hashem.
In a speech he delivered on the sidelines of the event, Al-Ghanim commended KOC’s senior officials and staff and said that KOC has done much in the way of environmental stewardship. He maintained that this was evidenced by projects such as the Subaihiya Oasis and other environmental conservation efforts.
During the Open Day event, the Speaker of Parliament was provided with a tour of the Subaihiya Oasis. During the tour, Al-Ghanim praised the natural beauty that exists at the oasis and congratulated KOC for the successful efforts the Company implemented in turning the project into reality.
Those in attendance at the Open Day were then presented with a video presentation that highlighted the history of oil in Kuwait and the establishment of KOC and the important role it plays for the country.
The Open Day event was then concluded with the exchange of commemorative gifts between KOC and Kuwait’s National Assembly.
