Leighton O’Brien Business Development Manager (EMEA Region), Munir Azizullah, said: “KSA (Kingdom of Saudia Arabia) is undergoing major advances in the fuel retail sector, with government regulatory authorities enhancing service standards in the market.

“Many small scale retailers are entering into agreements with major oil marketers which requires significant due diligence to evaluate fuel system integrity and associated maintenance.

“Our partnership with Tamkeen will enable oil majors to assess and proactively manage these newly acquired sites from a maintenance and environmental perspective using the world’s most advanced testing and cleaning technology.

“Tamkeen is a major addition to the partner network that we have been developing throughout the region which already includes market-leading partners in UAE, Oman, Lebanon, Pakistan and Iraq.
