The security contractor at the Duqm refinery construction site in Petrofac has been found in breach of regulations by the special economic zone authority at Duqm (SEZAD). The breaches related to the employment of certain security staff and to failing to obtain relevant approvals and comply with registration and licensing requirements. SEZAD, which set the requirements, has decided 158 security workers should be redeployed. Saipem is to take 72 staff, a TR and Daewoo joint venture will employ 24 and a Oman and Samsung joint venture is hiring 22. The remaining staff will be hired by other sub-contractors within the next three weeks.
