20 years of community engagement

Genel signed its first production sharing contract (PSC) in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) in 2002. We were the first company to do so and have a 20-year record of local social and economic contributions.

We’re marking two decades of work in KRI by increasing social activities in line with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs) under the ‘Genel20’ banner.
