The project will be executed from a project execution office in Basra made up of both local and expat experts, supported by a smaller project office in Dubai. David Touhey MSc, Cmgr, B.Eng, MIEI, Managing Director for Kent CCS commented: “Development of the local workforce will be a huge part of the execution of this project and our competency assurance development plans will ensure not only a favourable outcome for the client but leave a lasting legacy with the local workforce and communities.” \#intoiraq #newfrontiers #kentechccs #systemscompletion #commissioning Share this story [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fkent.nzi.me%2Fnews-insights%2Fkent-ccs-mobilise-to-iraq) [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https://kent.nzi.me/news-insights/kent-ccs-mobilise-to-iraq) [X](https://x.com/intent/tweet?url=https://kent.nzi.me/news-insights/kent-ccs-mobilise-to-iraq&text=Kent%20CCS%20Mobilise%20to%20Iraq) Related Blogs ## You might also like [![Ampol Safety Milestone Thumbnail]()](https://kent.nzi.me/news-insights/1-million-safe-hours-and-key-installations-completed-on-ampols-future-fuels-project)Project News [1 Million Safe Hours and Key Installations Completed on Ampol’s Future Fuels Project ](https://kent.nzi.me/news-insights/1-million-safe-hours-and-key-installations-completed-on-ampols-future-fuels-project)From zero LTIs to major construction milestones, progress continues with safety at the core.
