During his speech, Al-Rushaid told the audience that the construction<br />
period was projected to last for 22 months. After its completion, the<br />
KOC C&MD expressed his hope that the new Display Center would go<br />
above and beyond its goal of serving not only <strong>Kuwait</strong>’s oil sector, but all<br />
of <strong>Kuwait</strong> as a whole. The Chairman concluded his speech by thanking<br />
everyone involved with the project for the hard work and dedication<br />
they have shown to create this particular KOC vision into a reality.<br />
Following the Chairman’s speech, Public Relations and Information<br />
Group Manager Abdul Khaliq Al-Ali took the stage. In many senses, the<br />
New Display Center has been Al-Ali’s brainchild, who has worked very<br />
hard since the beginning to ensure that the new Display Center would<br />
be built and equipped with the latest and most innovative technologies.<br />
In his presentation to the audience, Al-Ali maintained that the team tasked<br />
with overseeing work for the Display Center had conducted extensive<br />
research on oil and gas display centers from around the world and that<br />
some of the most important ideas and interactive experiences they shared<br />
would be used as inspiration and motivation for the new Display Center.<br />
“When we sat down to identify the objectives of the new Display Center,<br />
we considered who would be visiting the new facility in the future. Guests<br />
to <strong>Kuwait</strong>, researchers and students figured high on that list, which gave<br />
us the idea to build a national facility equipped with the latest technologies<br />
in so-called ‘educational entertainment.’ The new Display Center will<br />
be one which can accommodate a broad spectrum of visitors, ranging<br />
from heads of state and VIPs to students and visitors from around the<br />
world, with the common denominator being that everyone, regardless<br />
of age or status, can learn about <strong>Kuwait</strong>’s story of oil,” Al-Ali said.<br />
At the conclusion of his comprehensive explanation of the project, Public<br />
Relations and Information Group Manager Abdul Khaliq Al-Ali thanked<br />
those in attendance for coming while also giving special thanks to everyone<br />
involved who had played a part in making the new Display Center a reality.<br />
