The construction of The Fifth Liquefied Petroleum Gas Train required 6,900 workers at peak times. The full total number of working hours from the beginning of the Project until the initial commissioning date reached close to 58 million hours without lost time incidents. This was a result of the concerted efforts of the team supervising the Project from KNPC together with the Contractor’s labor.
More than 100 Kuwaiti Engineers from various Departments and Divisions undertook over 60 training courses that took place in two phases, one at the Headquarters of manufacturers and the other at the work site.
