Bapco’ s Chairman and Chief Executive Dr Dawood Nassif announced this in early March 2021, Commenting, Dr Nassif said, “On behalf of Bapco’s Leadership Team, I would like to express my pride and appreciation to our BMP Integrated Project Management Team of Bapco, Worley and our partners TTSJV with their various subcontractors who continue to demonstrate an excellent level of personal and process safety performance and achievement.

This does not come by chance but is rather reflective of teamwork and supportive efforts of our entire BMP workforce, related partners, contractors and stakeholders.”

• Thousands of workers engaged at BMP Brown and Greenfield work areas every day and many thousands more scheduled to join them over the next few months.

• 1 Million Diameter-Inches of pipe fabrication completed and 70% of structural steel of pipe racks installed.
