Farouk Mohammed Al-Khatib, Oil Field Lands Advisor at Bapco Exploration and Production, recently retired after an impressive 71-year career in the oil and gas sector. His Highness Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Representative of His Majesty the King for Humanitarian Works and Youth Affairs, and Chairman of Bapco Energies, hosted a reception to honor Al-Khatib for his significant contributions and dedication throughout his extensive career. Al-Khatib was praised for his role in advancing the industry and adapting to its evolving landscape, showcasing his commitment as a distinguished national talent who served diligently for seven decades.

During the reception, HH Shaikh Nasser emphasized the importance of honoring long-serving individuals, aligning with the leadership of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, and Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister. This recognition reflects the commitment to appreciate and recognize the efforts of national figures who have contributed to the development of Bahrain. Al-Khatib’s career began in 1953 when he joined the Bahrain Oil Company, known then as “Banoco,” before transitioning to Bapco and eventually the Bahrain Petroleum Development Company. His career has been marked by dedication and numerous successes, culminating in his retirement from Bapco Exploration and Production.

Throughout his tenure, Al-Khatib held various technical roles, including drilling, field services, gas, asset management, and lands. He started in a fuel tank position but made history as the first Bahraini appointed as a shift supervisor in the Bahrain Field Department. His exemplary service earned him multiple awards and honors, solidifying his legacy as a devoted professional and a source of inspiration for his colleagues and future generations in the industry. His contributions to the oil and gas sector will be remembered as pivotal in shaping the industry’s growth and success in Bahrain.

Al-Khatib’s retirement marks the end of a remarkable career that spanned over seven decades in the oil and gas sector. His dedication and commitment to excellence have left a lasting impact on the industry in Bahrain. His role in advancing the industry and adapting to its changing landscape have been recognized and celebrated by His Highness Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa and other leaders in the country. As Bahrain continues to develop its oil and gas sector, Al-Khatib’s contributions will be remembered as instrumental in shaping its growth and success.

The reception hosted by HH Shaikh Nasser to honor Farouk Mohammed Al-Khatib highlighted the importance of recognizing and appreciating the efforts of long-serving individuals who have contributed significantly to the development of Bahrain. This emphasis on honoring national figures aligns with the visionary leadership of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and reflects the commitment of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister. Al-Khatib’s career trajectory from “Banoco” to Bapco and eventually the Bahrain Petroleum Development Company exemplifies his dedication and success in the oil and gas sector.
