Dr Mohammad Barkindo, Secretary-General, Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) has received a special award at the Egypt Petroleum Show (EGYPS) 2022 for his achievements.

The Secretary-General congratulated them for successfully hosting the fifth edition of the event.

“The experience has confirmed for me, more than ever before, that nothing can be accomplished without teamwork,” Barkindo stated.
He noted that OPEC has helped the oil industry to navigate some rough waters over the last six years and taken action that ensured the survival of the industry.
“This has truly been a collective endeavour; the combined work of our Member Countries, their ministers and ministries of oil or energy, their capable staff and teams,” Barkindo stated.
