Kuwait City, Kuwait – The Kuwait Integrated Petroleum Industries Company (KIPIC) has started commercial operations of the first phase of Al-Zour Refinery project.

The project started last month to produce and sell primary quantities of fuel oil and supply it to local electric power stations.

Acting CEO of KIPIC Waleed Al-Bader said the operation is important and a mainstay of the country’s development plan, according to media reports.

It provides fuel of high quality and environmental standards to meet the local demand for energy, as it limits emissions of gases polluting the environment and improves air quality, Al-Bader added.

He said it is a key outlet for the disposal of Kuwaiti oil, and provides other refined products for export in global markets with standard specifications, and more job opportunities for national cadres.
