ShaMaran is a finalist in the category "Award of Excellence –
Upstream Transformation" and Dr. Chaouch is a finalist in the
category "Chief Trailblazer of the Year".
Often described as "the Oscars of the energy industry", the
S&P Global Platts Global Energy Awards showcase achievements in
innovation, leadership, and company performance in 22 categories
spanning the entire energy complex.
Judges seek companies and individuals that have firmly weathered
the recent downturn in the sector which was further heavily
impacted by the Covid crisis. For instance, creating innovative
financial solutions, establishing world-class standards in E&P,
reaching new levels of technical excellence, and bringing complex
and/or intricate projects to completion.
In addition to optimized operational practices, the winner will
have clearly demonstrated its commitment to emissions reductions,
safer extraction techniques, and investments in technology, while
providing economic benefits to its communities.
As global issues continue to evolve, many employees, clients,
and industry peers look towards chief leaders to be visible and
clarify their company's stance on real-world problems. From social
and political unrest, to energy transition, the CEO should
demonstrate clarity of vision, judgment, and motivational skills
that transform and empower not only their organization but the
industry overall. The winner will be a leader who is highly
respected by both peers and competitors, admired and followed by
employees, trusted by investors, and welcomed by the community.
This award recognizes courage, perseverance, dedication, ethics,
and the ability to advance their company in the face of adversity,
sustain their sector amid universal headwinds, and undeniably
support the employees who propel their organization into the
future.
Jenny Salinas, Vice President,
Marketing, S&P Global Platts commented, "This year's
complement of 196 finalists truly indicates the outstanding
innovation and supreme leadership occurring in so many sectors
across our industries. Companies are tackling critical issues such
as emissions control, digitization, investment to improve the
quality of life, and so much more. We are proud to honor
these individuals and companies on their achievements."
The Global Energy Awards' independent panel of esteemed judges
will select winners for each award category from the corresponding
group of finalists. The 'Energy Company of the Year' will be
