Like many graduate engineers, Noor was slightly unsure of what a career at Bapco might entail. Assigned to the Marketing Division, Noor recalls the excellent mentorship that she received in areas such as Refinery optimization, supply logistics and market dynamics. Noor discovered a strong interest in planning and economics that has been formative in her career to-date.

Noor currently works with a diverse group of chemical engineers, traders, sales managers and strategists who together predict the future for Bapco’s products and services. Noor comments ‘Bapco’s career opportunities are both welcoming and empowering’, and is delighted to have found such an interesting area to work in for her future career.

Fatema was recognised in 2021 by Dr. Abdulrahman Jawahery, the Bapco CEO as a High Performance Employee. She was also privileged to meet His Highness Shaikh Nasser Bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Chairman nogaholding, during his visit to Bapco.
