The exercise aimed to strengthen ASRY’s security preparedness and enhance its response to different emergency situations. It also serves to maintain a safe working environment for all employees and visitors while upholding the highest safety and security standards across the company’s facilities.

Mr. Mahmood Abdulaziz, ASRY’s Health, Safety, Security, and Environment (HSSE) Manager, said in his remarks about the drill: ‘This regular exercise is intended to refine the team’s skills and reinforce its security readiness by employing simulated real-life, scenario-based training, so that staff are well prepared to handle varied risks and deal with emergencies efficiently and professionally.’ He added: ‘We value the strong involvement of the security authorities in Bahrain whose direct participation helped carry out the drill and meet its aims.
