Dreg Waters Petroleum and Logistics Limited, has urged the Africa continent to look forward to value-adding services to survive the challenges of dwindling commodity prices.
Damilola Owolabi, chief executive officer, of the company made this plea at the ongoing 22nd anniversary Africa Oil Week/Africa Upstream Conference holding in Cape Town, South Africa.
She stressed that the sector must focus on delivering services that would further promote oil and gas business in Africa.
She said the full participation of her firm in the August event alongside several industry giants across the globe with such global reputation is considered as a privileged.
She said it was glaring from recent development in the sector that only value-addition services can make Africa measure up in the global market.
“In line with our vision to deliver only benchmark value-adding business services in the onshore, offshore and marine industries in Nigeria, being actively participating in an event as this with multiple prospects is a necessity for us and a step in forward direction.”
She explains that her clients had rely on her organization to offer timely delivery of licenses and permits.
“Nigeria needs the right documentation and timely approvals of licences and permits in the petroleum, water dredging and logistics industry and as an organisation we committed to make business more swifter for the sector”, Owolabi added
Chairman of the Board, Babette van Gessel and chief executive, Duncan Clarke, had said: “Africa Oil Week 2015 will provide rich-content with highest quality, first-class networking and social interface, and multiple opportunities for all to create and cement relationships that will shape the future for oil and gas in Africa, and the economic future of the continent.”
