EXECUTIVE MOVEMENTS

 
 

Hussain Hassan Ali AbdulHussain

Haya Water has recently appointed Hussain Hassan Ali AbdulHussain as the new Chief Executive replacing Omar Al Wahaibi who left to take charge as the CEO of Electricity Holding Company. The new CEO brings with him 24 years of experience in oil and gas projects, operations, engineering and commercial developments in Oman. AbdulHussain says he relishes the challenge to lead one of Oman’s most dynamic, progressive and innovative companies.

A graduate from the University of Arizona, AbdulHussain spent 14 years working for Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) before moving to the Oman Oil Company and then helping with the creation of Oman Petrochemical Industries Company (OPIC). He subsequently moved to work at Oman Refineries and Petrochemicals Company (ORPC) as business development and marketing general manager before leaving to establish his own engineering support and services business.

Commenting on his appointment AbdulHussain says: “I am truly honoured to be selected by the board of directors of Haya to lead the executive management team. Together we will continue to work with the same level of diligence, care and enthusiasm to deliver the mission and vision entrusted to Haya. “I have already been impressed by the professionalism, commitment and expertise of the team here at Haya and I am looking forward to working with them to achieve our goal of making Muscat a better city through the implementation of our world-class water reuse project. Haya Water chairman HE Sultan Hamdoon Al Harthi welcomed AbdulHussain to the company and highlighted the achievements and the wealth of experience that the new chief executive is bringing to help Haya achieve its mission to roll out the most advanced and sophisticated waste water treatment technology across the Muscat governorate.
