As of now, the online nomination process for the awards has gained momentum, and will close on 26 July 2018. This year, there are 10 categories of awards – two for individuals and eight for organisations, initiatives and projects. The last eight editions of the prestigious awards received overwhelming response from the industry.
The nomination process
To nominate for this year’s awards, please visit www.arabianoilandgas.com/oil-gas-awards/ and follow these simple steps:
1. All nominations must be submitted online at www.arabianoilandgas.com/oil-gas-awards/ through the nomination system. Nominations sent via e-mail, or in any other format will not be considered.
2. When visiting the website, the visitor first needs to create a personal user account. The nomination system allows the visitor to access his/her account at any time, and edit, or update the submissions until the nomination deadline.
3. For each submission, the applicant must fill out a questionnaire that will help the judges decide why the nominated person/organisation/project/initiative deserves to win.
4. The nomination system allows the visitor to upload a single PDF file with supporting images and documents, not larger than 10MB in size. Nominations with photos create a greater impact than entries with just the document. So, please make it a point to submit images.
5. When all the nominations have been received, the Oil & Gas Middle East and Refining & Petrochemicals Middle East editorial team will compile a shortlist of six to ten entries in each category, which will be presented to an independent panel of judges. The panel of judges will evaluate the shortlisted persons/organisations/projects/initiatives in each category, according to the guidelines, making its final selection of winners. The decision of the panel of judges will be final.
