FPAL- Industry Steered, Serving the Oil & Gas Industry
Established in 1996, FPAL is governed by an industry steering committee which includes representatives by oil majors, main contractors and suppliers. Members are sought through an open nomination process and each individual must retire after three years. They may of course offer themselves for re-election as part of our democratic process.
