Muscat - Daleel Petroleum LLC recently signed a 3 year memorandum of understanding with Outward Bound Oman to support the educational foundation in its mission to equip the youth of Oman with practical and key life skills.

The MOU was signed by the His Highness Sayyid Faisal Bin Turki Al Said, Patron of Outward Bound Oman, and Fahmy Al Musharfy, CPO of Daleel Petroleum. The partnership underscores Daleel's commitment to building the capacity of Omani youth across the Sultanate, supporting the government's efforts to empower Omani young people to embrace future opportunities.

The partnership will benefit more than 200 young people from across the Sultanate by funding challenging, 4 day adventurous journeys of learning into the desert or the Omani Jebels, thus creating opportunities for young people to experience Oman's wilderness whilst developing key life skills such as leadership, teamwork, and how to deal with failure, based on the guiding principle that each individual has undiscovered potential. A typical Outward Bound course will see students being stretched both mentally and physically, and put into situations where an appreciation of risk, reward and responsibility for one's self, others and the environment are a natural outcome, so equipping them with a skill set they can use in their everyday life, and as they enter the world of work.

Mr. Fahmy Al Musharfy, CPO of Daleel Petroleum says "Daleel Petroleum has focused, in the recent few years, on taking part in CSR programs, and has assigned a team to prepare the necessary plans and studies, and allocated sufficient funding that is commensurate with the size of programs and projects proposed every year. The memorandum of understanding with Outward Bound Oman is one of the efficient projects given special attention to support education and training programs as Daleel Petroleum believes that individuals are the source and foundation of development."

His Highness Sayyid Faisal Bin Turki Al Said, Patron of Outward Bound Oman, added "We are grateful to Daleel for their support, and welcome them into The Patrons Company, a group of leading companies in Oman that actively support the development of Omani young people. In addition, we look forward to welcoming its volunteer mentor's to our unique educational experience where they can interact directly with the youth and Omani wilderness to ensure a memorable experience."
