KUALA LUMPUR: Petronas recently organised a one-day BeyondHome programme to encourage local oil and gas services and equipment (OGSE) vendors to venture beyond Malaysian shores.
In collaboration with Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (Matrade), the programme was aimed
at empowering local vendors to be more competitive and resilient.
The event brought together stakeholders from nine countries and provided insights to about 500 local Petronas contractors in helping them make inroads into the foreign markets.
The participating countries were Argentina, Azerbaijan, Brunei, Indonesia, Iraq, Mexico, Myanmar, South Sudan and Turkmenistan — where Petronas maintains operations or has ventured into, in terms of upstream exploration and development.
International Trade and Industry (Miti) Deputy Minister Dr Ong Kian Ming officiated BeyondHome, which was also attended by the ambassadors of Argentina, Azerbaijan and Mexico. – Bernama
