Oriented on making people closer

Avaza, September 18 | ORIENT. On the sidelines of the Investment Forum in Avaza, our correspondent briefly spoke with Said Al Shamsi, General Manager of Marketing and Government Relations at Dragon Oil. He delivered a welcome address on behalf of Chief Executive Officer Abdulkarim Ahmed Al Mazmi, emphasizing the company's strategic vision: to be recognized as a global player in the oil and gas sector, focused on innovation and sustainable development.

In his conversation, Mr. Al Shamsi proudly noted the company's 25 years of successful partnership with Turkmenistan. Over these years, Dragon Oil has invested over $11 billion in the country, and its total production volume has exceeded 440 million barrels.

Particular emphasis was placed on the company's social contribution. Since its inception, Dragon Oil has invested over $250 million in local social projects, supporting education, culture, sports, and healthy living. This figure, as a company representative noted, clearly demonstrates Dragon Oil's deep commitment to the local community.

One of the most important figures, according to Said Al Shamsi, is the composition of the team: 93% of the company's more than 2,200 employees are Turkmen citizens. This is an indicator of trust and successful cooperation.

All the company's actions are based on five key values: responsibility, integrity, respect, innovation, and excellence, Said Al Shamsi emphasized. These principles, along with a commitment to growth, define Dragon Oil's strategy for many years to come.
