Action Plan: "Seven Sisters" was a common term for the seven transnational oil companies of the "Consortium for Iran" oligopoly or cartel, which dominated the global petroleum industry from the mid-1940s to the mid-1970s. The oligopoly lasted until the 1970s when OPEC and national oil companies gained control over the key governing arrangements for oil production.The companies used interlocking ownership of oil fields to maintain collusion and restrict oil supply, so that the companies would reap greater profits.

This is going to be an exploratory drive to find new routes around the Large dunes in Badayer. We will start from the shop areas and make our way around in a loop ending at the shops.  We intend to cover 7 large dune formations ( except super bowl - iftaar bowl) and find best tracks for fewbies. The area has been recently occupied by O&G activities and hence be prepared for reroutes and difficult maneuvers.  
 

Type of Car: Any proper 4x4 with front and back tow hooks and 8-10 inches of ground clearance.

What to bring along: Loads of water, snacks (for yourself), smiles, face mask, rubber gloves, enthusiasm and willingness to learn.

Approximate finish time: 9 AM 

P.S. Only join if you have a compressor to inflate your tires after the drive.

LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE:

  • Limited to 8 cars maximum. RSVP will close on Monday - 12 PM.
    • If the RSVP is full and you wish to join, please mention your name on the drive thread to add on the waiting list
  • Latecomers will be returned back - without ANY EXCEPTIONS.
  • Members without RSVP will be returned back - without ANY EXCEPTIONS.
  • Members that do not confirm the terms of the COVID requirements will be removed from the RSVP list.
  • Please withdraw your RSVP, if you aren't joining, so your spot can be taken by others.
  • Repeated no-show members after RSVP will have their account suspended for a month.
