The Board further announced the appointment of Samed Abdul Ibrahim, currently Director of the Project Implementation Unit, as Acting Deputy Chief Executive responsible for Engineering and Operations.
The appointments took effect from May 8, 2026.
The Board called on staff of the company to extend the necessary cooperation and support to the newly appointed executives as they assume their responsibilities.
