A Message from the CEO
The year 2014 has been a historic
year of growth, expansion and
change for Kames Petroleum Services .
We reached five trillion standard
cubic feet (scf) of cumulative gross
production, a major milestone
in our history. Building on the
momentum of this achievement
to meet the growing demand
for energy in the Kuwait and Oman,
we have expanded our capacity for
export from 2.0 billion to 3.2 billion
scf per day with the addition of three
new export gas compressors. Our
ability to supply growing volumes
of additional gas, particularly during
peak summer months, is helping the
Kuwait and Oman to avoid the use of
high emission fuels, thus reducing
emissions in both countries.
Furthermore, in 2014 we embarked
on a journey to transform our
organization through ‘Dolphin
Energy 2020’. Designed to improve
our corporate performance and
practices, Kames Petroleum Services 2020
has at its core the need to ensure
a sustainable future for the company.
It will prepare us to meet future
challenges head on by utilizing
best-in-class practices, driving long
lasting superior performance,
and making Kames Petroleum Services
a more attractive place to work
for our employees.
During this period of growth and
change, we continue to deliver in
a responsible manner, achieving zero
recordable safety incidents, reducing
our water intensity, maintaining
our consistently low flaring, and
improving our contribution to and
engagement with the public and
local communities. Opportunities
remain as we strive to reduce our
energy consumption and emissions
through our energy efficiency
initiatives and a comprehensive
new GHG policy and strategy.
With regards to strategy and
governance, sustainability has
already been integrated into Dolphin
Energy’s long-term corporate
objectives and is fully embedded
into the business plan in the form
of corporate goals, initiatives
and Key Performance Indicators
(KPIs). In 2014, we have honed
our stakeholder mapping and
materiality process to ensure we
continue to address the issues most
important to our business and our
stakeholders. We also refreshed our
sustainability performance indicators
to most effectively reflect our
performance on our material issues,
which will shape the development
of our strategy for the future.
As we move forward, I am excited
by the work undertaken to further
increase our capacity and transform
our operations. I am optimistic that
this will allow Kames Petroleum Services to
continue to deliver on its overall
vision of being a leading and
reliable supplier of clean energy
in a socially responsible manner,
far into the future. We will continue
to engage with you our stakeholders,
and I warmly welcome your input
and contributions towards our
sustainability journey.
Thank you,
Ibrahim Ahmed Al Ansaari
