QATA”
The Company proposes to conform to the Bahrein
Petroleum Company and other Bahrain employers of labour
as nearly as possible, on the reopening of Qatar, as
regards basic conditions. Due to the remoteness of the
oil camp from any bazaar or market, it may be necessary
for the Company to feed its employees at least in the
early stages but reasonable adjustments of pay rates will
be made. In this connection, it is believed that the
Arabian American Oil Co. Ltd., have pay rates which differ
from those of the Bahrein Petroleum Company. In such
cases it is proposed that Petroleum Development (Qatar)
Limited follow Bahrain.
