30 April 2024 Kuwait

In a significant move towards sustainability, Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) has entered into an agreement with KBR Consulting to conduct a feasibility study on transitioning to renewable energy and green hydrogen.

This strategic initiative is in line with Kuwait Petroleum Corporation’s (KPC) commitment to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, as articulated by KPC CEO Sheikh Nawaf Al-Saud.

A coordination meeting convened between KOC and KBR officials to outline the project’s roadmap. The KOC delegation comprised Hamad Al-Zaabi, Group Manager of Innovation and Technology; Mohammed Al-Aqab, Head of Research and Technology Team; Nasser Boutaleb, Head of Project Management Consultant Contracts Team; Nahed Al-Hajri, Head of Project Management Team (35); and Dr. Hussein Arab, Chief Consultant.

Kuwait is actively pursuing environmental projects, particularly with KPC and its subsidiaries launching their strategic plan in this area and their commitment to achieving carbon neutrality in the oil and gas sector.

KOC’s comprehensive strategy encompasses exploration, production, energy transition, and drilling, both onshore and offshore. This integrated approach is aligned with the overarching strategy of KPC and its subsidiaries, facilitating Kuwait’s oil strategy under the coordinated leadership of KPC and its subsidiaries.
