The Kuwait Oil Company Contractor Safety Day, which took place last week on the 15th of January in Kuwait City, was a success.

The seminar was an excellent platform to discuss best practices and new technologies that improve worksite safety. It provided the ideal meeting point for contractors, KOC oil and gas employees and safety professionals to exchange experiences and network with one another. Mike Gilbert, United Safety’s VP for Middle East, discussed how innovations can help solve H2S challenges.

At the exhibition, a number of safety innovations were showcased. Key among them included Quazar™, our community protection system, Air II™ breathing air regulator, Air Qruise™ Vehicle Gas Protection System, as well as the VulQan™ auto well ignition system. Contractors and KOC contributors were impressed by the quality and novelty of the equipment United Safety brought to the event, and how they help improve safety of personnel and assets onsite.
