Gulf Drilling International (GDI) has received the winner's award in the 'Energy Sector' during the "Arabia Corporate Social Responsibility Network" (ACSRN) award ceremony.

GDI is a subsidiary of Gulf International Services, which is the largest services group in Qatar. The award recognises GDI's commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR), its role in creating a positive societal impact and the company's corporate best practices in sustainability.

GDI won the award for the very first time it took part in the competition, which the company said was an "impressive feat".

The ACSR awards are region's most prominent CSR and sustainability awards and are known for their stringent criteria, which are benchmarked against the UN Global Compact Ten Principles, the GRI principles of sustainability reporting and the EFQM Excellence Model. GDI prides itself as the first 'organisational stakeholder' of GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) in Qatar. GDI has released its "Integrated report 2015," one of the first integrated reports in the region, taking reference from the 'International Integrated Reporting Framework', released by the 'International Integrated Reporting Council' (IIRC) and "in accordance" with 'GRI G4' option core.

Abdulwahab Khamees, from GDI's Environmental Department, represented the company at the event and received the award from Dr Iyad Abu Moghli, director of the United Nations Environment Programme for Western Asia.
