SUEZ’s Post

Enabling Projects: a very innovative concept for knowledge sharing and modernizing water and wastewater services.

I didn’t know this but the longest time Suez Canal was closed is surprisingly 8 years! There has been three wars that resulted in Suez Canal closures in the recent history. I certainly hope that a resolution happens fast, but it is always good to think what if this takes longer? Sharing this in a simple chart.

The Suez Canal, a remarkable feat of engineering, spans a length of approximately 120 miles (193 kilometers). This artificial waterway, which acts as a crucial link between the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea, serves as a vital shortcut for global maritime trade. In terms of dimensions, the Suez Canal has a width that varies along its course but is typically around 673 feet (205 meters) wide at the surface. The depth of the canal ranges from about 79 feet (24 meters) to accommodate the transit of various vessel sizes. The canal was officially opened on February 17, 1867, marking a historic milestone in maritime history. Over the years, it has undergone expansions and improvements to enhance its capacity and efficiency, making it one of the world's busiest and strategically significant waterways. #SuezCanal #EngineeringMarvel #MaritimeShortcut #HistoricNavigation

"Alone you go faster, but together we go further." 👌 Hearing these words from Dario Nardella (Major of Florence) on how their city 🌆 have successfully partnered with global industry to support the energy transition was inspiring. Seeing local government back the energy sectors future like this ensures the next generation see a future! 🙌 First International trip 🌍 of 2024 complete and yes it started with a high by attending the Baker Hughes annual conference with partners 🤝 and clients. Delivering a creative, technology fuelled and customer relevant event is never easy these days, so hats off to the events & marketing teams behind this fantastic event and networking environment. 👏 Further having the opportunity to listen to Lorenzo Simonelli share a simple but clear message that by doubling the annual cross industry efficiency from 2% to 4% offers us the opportunity to meet our long term CO2 reduction commitments is something that I will take away from this event. As an industry collaboration is key, we all have strengths and can all learn from others, so to deliver outcome based success we must remain open minded and something that I am proud to champion at Expro. #innovation #technology #creativity #networking #marketing #sustainability
