The meeting offered an opportunity to evaluate achievements over the past year and to coordinate on initiatives aimed at improving TOR’s operational efficiency, financial stability, and long-term sustainability.

Dr Jinapor praised the Managing Director, Edmond Kombat, and his team for their leadership in navigating the refinery through challenges inherited from the previous administration.
