Equate, the single operator of an integrated manufacturing facility which produces petrochemical products is celebrating its recent success at the Oil & Gas Middle East Awards held in Dubai Tuesday.
Mohammad Al Benali, vice president of Equate’s technical services sector, received the Corporate Social Responsibility Award for the dedication to addressing every aspect of life and work for their community. The company launched the Middle East’s Plant Water Recycle Project which is playing a critical role in conserving valuable water resources and adding to energy consumption savings.

Their honest work and their tremendous efforts make me really pleased that I am chairing the team. That I have such wonderful people who are committed beyond a day to day job to contribute to CSR,” said Al Benali.
“At Equate we are committed to the community we live in, from all aspects, this is something that we not only want to show or be recognized for, rather it is something that is in our blood, we feel responsible to our society, the people, as we are blessed with the different resources we are provided with, to succeed in our business, we have a responsibility to pay back and share our successes with the society we live in,” he said. “Our efforts extend from health aspects, education, environment and sponsoring different initiatives. We are really proud that we live in Kuwait and are responsible to the society.”
