shell and ramadan
Shell and the Qatar Guests Centre have jointly distributed 3,500 copies of the Holy Qur’an in over 20 languages to workers in the Pearl GTL project in Ras Laffan Industrial City on the advent of the month of Ramadan.
This is the third consecutive year that Qatar Shell has had close co-operation with the prominent Islamic centre to cater to the needs of thousands of Muslim workers at the Pearl project during Ramadan.
Pearl GTL, a project jointly developed by QP and Shell, employs 48,000 workers of more than 60 nationalities. The Muslim population in the project represents 25% of the total workforce.
Qatar Guests Centre also provides Imams (religious scholars) to lead prayers in Ramadan.
Shell also ensures that all mosques in the different camps within the workers’ residence (The Pearl Village) are fully equipped and prepared for the ongoing religious activities of the holy month.
“We are very grateful for the support of the Qatar Guests Centre. We fully understand the spiritual atmosphere of this month and its significance to Muslims in the project and we are committed to do everything possible to ensure that Muslims on site enjoy the experience to the full,” said Pearl Project managing director and Qatar Shell executive vice president Andy Brown
