NOGA Receives ISO Quality Certification Again
The National Oil and Gas Authority (NOGA) got ISO 2008:9001 for a second time, the quality management system certification issued by the DNV company. The certificate is valid for three years, and is in recognition of its commitment to international standards in all departments.
The certificate was presented to Dr. Ahmed Ali Al Sharyan, the Secretary-General of the NOGA by the senior DNV officials on March 26 at a ceremony held at the NOGA headquarters, attended by senior officials.
On this occasion, the Secretary-General said he was happy about the achievement, which, he said, was proof of the sincere NOGA commitment to an effective quality management system in all its operations and services provided to the community. He said he was delighted to receive the certificate, which was the fruit of the efforts of NOGA employees and a result of the significant core operations and responsibilities carried out by the NOGA for all users - domestic or international. He pledged that NOGA would continue to move on the path of excellence for its international customers and the local community with a conviction to achieve its strategic objectives that are in harmony with the Bahrain Economic Vision 2030 and the directives of the wise leadership of the Kingdom of Bahrain, for the benefit of and in the interest of the citizens and the homeland.
Dr. Al Sharyan, on behalf of the Minister of Finance, Minister in Charge of the Oil and Gas Affairs, expressed profound gratitude and appreciation to the NOGA quality team for their loyalty and dedication, which resulted in the NOGA being awarded the global certificate.
As part of the requirements to obtain the certificate, the DNV last month had carried out an audit and reviewed all procedures and documentation in NOGA and all its operations. The company will assess the NOGA operations every six months or year, as required, to ensure it continues its commitment to quality system.
For its part, NOGA has also formed a team to carry out internal audit, headed by Ms. Huda Al Jowder, with Mr. Mohamed Saad Al Hajri, Ms. Ezz Al Mannai and Mr. Ali Al Sadadi as members.
