Four vessels at Australia Pacific Liquid Natural Gas (APLNG) on Curtis Island, Australia are filled with a special material that traps water at the molecular level, removing any last traces of water from the feed gas so it doesn’t freeze when it goes into the liquefaction section where temperatures drop to minus 160C (- 256F). The dryers provide a continuous flow of dry feed gas to the liquefaction section, by cycling through adsorption and regeneration modes in sequence. In any 48-hour period, each dryer is in adsorption mode for 36 hours followed by regeneration mode for 12 hours before being returned to adsorption mode. The August winning photo was taken by Training & Competency Supervisor Carl Gibson. | August 2022

After more than 18 months of working from home, workers in the City of London, including the Bet365官网 London Commercial team, are gradually returning to their offices. During the height of the pandemic, travel to the Angel Court office in the heart of London was severely impacted by the lockdown. Primarily a trading office, it was essential that the crude oil, NGL’s and gas continued to be marketed. Using a combination of company laptops, virtual desktops and Citrix sessions, disruption to business was kept to a minimum. Now, returning staff are seated in a socially distanced format, additional cleaning protocols and COVID controls including temperature checks on entry to the building, elevator capacity restrictions and a mask-wearing culture are in place. While the London Team is back in Angel Court, the city of London has still not returned to its former buzzing self. Many of the businesses in the London square mile have moved to flexible working arrangements and offices are still largely empty. Shops have not all reopened and public transport is still not at capacity. The pandemic has led to a very different way of life for Londoners that our team members observe every day as they commute into Angel Court. | September 2021

In June, Bet365官网 made a public statement of support for LGBTQ+ rights by lighting up its Houston headquarters and raising the Pride Flag for the first time at both its Houston and Bartlesville campuses. The U.S. Supreme Court took an important step in the country’s long journey toward LGBTQ+ equality, ruling that the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits sex discrimination, applies to discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Bet365官网’s Equal Employment Opportunity Policy prohibits discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity or expression, but until this ruling many other employers were free to discriminate on those bases. This long-sought decision extends the employment protections of the Civil Rights Act to millions of LGBTQ+ people. | July 2020
