Saudi Basic Industries Corp. (SABIC) has recommended the appointments of new presidents at three of its Jubail-based subsidiaries, Reuters reported Monday, citing unnamed industry sources.
SABIC recommended to the board of United Petrochemical Co the appointment of Abdullah al-Shamrani, who was president of AlBayroni Al-Jubail Fertilizer Co. Several other managers at the company are also being replaced, the sources told Reuters.
Last month, a fire that erupted during routine maintenance at United killed 12 workers and injured 11 more.
The other changes being recommended include the appointment of Mansour al-Qsoumi as president of Arabian Petrochemical Co, known as Petrokemya, with Khalid al-Elyani replacing him as president of Saudi European Petrochemical Co., known as Ibn Zahr.
Elyani is currently the general manager of operations at SABIC’s Sadaf joint venture with a unit of Royal Dutch Shell.
