Awali memories still hold strong for oldest oil pioneers


The Gulf Daily News is launching a new series of Bygone Bahrain articles, which will showcase Bapco Energies’ golden history through personal stories brought alive by individuals who have been a part of the enterprise that first discovered oil in the Gulf region.

Bapco Stories, recorded by Melissa Nazareth, will feature the memories of some of the pioneers, their partners and the children who grew up in Awali, as well as national and expatriate employees now carrying on the legacy of energy entrepreneurialism.

The series is launched by petroleum engineer Bill Murray who boasts more than 50 years of experience in the sector. He returned to the UK almost three years ago to undergo cancer treatment. However, Bahrain will always be ‘home’ – the place where he grew up and where his love affair with oil fields began – on the rigs in the Arabian Gulf.
