SLONERGY Upstream - Local Content Development Through Low Tech Applications
Local Content has become a major issue in most, if not all, oil producing African Countries. Governments, with Operators and Service Companies, are all speaking about and seeking for ways to encourage local content development within the industry.Our own industry studies have revealed that there are numerous activities especially in manufacturing and production that require minimum finance and low expertise. These activities are usually referred to as Low Tech Applications. Adoption of these applications in oil producing African countries will help boost the development of its local workforce, increase employment and create wealth for its populace.
In achieving this:
SLONERGY has and is continually developing associations with firms who operate some of these applications. We then bring such to bear on oil production activities in the various host countries by matching these associations with appropriate local partners. In doing this, we recognize the need to encourage local growth through technology transfer and utilization of local resources.
