Last week, the IPLOCA Annual Convention 2025 brought together industry leaders for a week in Izmir, Türkiye — a premier platform for collaboration, innovation, and recognition in the pipeline and energy sector.

We are delighted to congratulate our colleague Saji Khoury on his appointment as President of IPLOCA 2025. Alongside this prestigious role, Saji serves as Director for Middle East & Africa, Scholarship Project Lead, and NextGen Network Project Lead, reflecting his deep commitment to the industry’s growth and future.

This milestone also continues CCC’s legacy of leadership within IPLOCA, following Samer Khoury (1997) and Najib Khoury (2014).

At the same convention, CCC was honored with two distinctions:

• Winner of the IPLOCA Quality Award, sponsored by SOCAR Türkiye – “Introducing AI to Improve Lessons Learned”
• Runner-Up for the CSR Award, sponsored by TotalEnergies – “Program Start-Ups and Work Readiness for Palestinian Youth”

These awards underscore CCC’s dedication to innovation and social impact, advancing not only our technical capabilities but also our contributions to the communities we serve.

We thank IPLOCA, our award sponsors, and our teams for their relentless pursuit of excellence.
