I have participated in 2004 with a team of two other people in the preparation of an EIA study for four oil fields in Syria (Tanak, Jido, Ishara and Maleh). Each field included mainly 4 processing facilities, export and import pipeline network, 115 oil wells (47 % are closed or abandoned), oil pits and road networks. In addition, the Maleh Field included a Natural Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) landfill while the Tanak Field had additional facilities including dumpsites, NORM yard, NORM decontamination Facility, base camps and offices. The study area is mostly located within Al Badiyah area (Syrian Desert) except for the Ishara Field which is located near an agricultural and residential area. The EIA was developed following Shell’s environmental policy and guidelines of environmental assessment and included a description of the study area and existing operations, an assessment of the environmental, social and economic impacts, and a management and monitoring plan.

I have been involved in HSE management in two projects, one in Jordan (the implementation of HSE audits at the facilities operated by the contractors of Amman Development Corridor Project including workers’ camps, crusher sites, asphalt plants and well sites; proposed recommendations intended to improve the environmental and health and safety system at contractors’ facilities) and the other in Iraq (proposed an HSE management plan for a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) preform production factory).
