Kuwait's Equate Petrochemical Company recently sponsored the 6th International Health, Safety, Security and Environmental (HSSE) & Loss Prevention 2011 Conference and Exhibition.
     
Adel Al-Munifi, Equate senior executive, corporate communications and client affairs, said: "Equate’s HSSE track record speaks for itself as it has launched the Middle East’s first plant water recycle project and Kuwait’s plant CO2 recovery project."

The company has also won numerous international awards, including the Gold Award from the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) as the top Gulf company in HSSE practices for three consecutive years, he said.
