摘要

This paper reviews a project that required the implementation of a comprehensive occupational health system in a brown field (named Majnoon) in the Basra Province of Iraq. This paper reports outcomes from the project and builds on an earlier published paper describing planning and preparation for the project. A multidisciplinary team from Shell Limited was responsible for implementation of the project comprising of Health, Industrial Hygienist, HSE and Social Performance team.
