Yinson Annual Report 2018

Apart from education, we also believe that clean and conducive public halls are important in fostering community spirit. We have just completed the construction of a one thousand-seater assembly hall in Nkroful Secondary School in Nkroful, a town village in the Western Region of Ghana. The assembly hall was officially opened in March 2018 and will serve the host school, and the towns and schools in the Ellembelle District as an educational resource centre. The assembly hall will also be used as a venue for community engagement programs, like the one organised with Ghana National Petroleum Commission (“GNPC”) and ENI to educate the fishermen along the Western Region coast on the arrival of FPSO JAK. Over 600 attended the three-day workshop, which covered information on the project construction activities, the impact of the construction on fishing activities, and the impact of the construction on health, safety and the overall well-being of all stakeholders, community and the environment. A Q&A session was also held for the fishermen to raise questions and seek clarification. Our initiatives go beyond our contractual obligations to fulfil local community requirements. In addition to education, we invited Ghanaian contractors to bid for essential services such as catering and hospitality on the FPSO JAK. Besides services, fabrication works where Ghanaian local expertise were available for this FPSO have also been awarded to Ghanaian entities. We are also active in supporting the needs of the communities in the other countries that we are present in, mainly through fund raising events, volunteer work and sponsorship in sports.
