T&T must get serious on local content

Consultants in the energy sector believe that policymakers at the Government level must do more to ensure that there is more local content in the energy sector that will lead to job creation and more business activity.

Local contractors in the energy sector provide a wide array of services such as drilling wells, cementing wells, supplying supply vessels that go offshore and providing labour.

Energy consultant Gregory McGuire told the Business Guardian that local content in the energy sector requires more attention from all stakeholders.
