The definition of local content has shifted from traditional “target setting” to a broader concept of creating more in-country or shared value. Is there anything that can be done to both service the existing needs of the O&G sector while also preparing workers and suppliers for future skills needs? Panelists will debate the following questions: How does the energy sector prepare its workforce for future skills needs and how important will these skills be in the face of the energy transition? How can we ensure a better connect between vocational skills for oil and gas? Which programs are most effective for training energy workers? Considering the narrow set of relevant jobs and insecurity around oil and gas projects, how can we create self-sustainable vocational training initiatives? Should energy companies focus more on transferable skills which support the wider economy as opposed to its own sector? How can industry take the lead on local content to build trust and dialogue between government, the local business community, and contractors.
