Some of the participants at the training program<\/strong><\/p>\nSome 16 Ghanaians have successfully completed an oil and gas training programme in Brazil<\/p>\n
The training programme is sponsored by
MODEC Production Services Ghana JV Ltd in partnership with Ghana\u2019s Petroleum Commission.<\/p>\n
The 16 young Ghanaians were trained for six months in Brazil in operations and management of Floating Production Storage and Offloading [FPSO]<\/p>\n
The training formed part of a package which will also see the company bring expatriates into the country for the operation and management of the country\u2019s Kwame Nkrumah and John Evans Atta Mills oil rigs.<\/p>\n
The trainees were sent to Brazil under the Modec\u2019s overseas secondment training programm for Ghanaian employees.<\/p>\n
The first batch of five trainees who have completed 6-7 months of on-the-job training in Brazil arrived recently and were welcomed at a dinner reception on Friday 20th September.<\/p>\n
Welcoming the first batch of trainees who had successfully completed their training, Theophilus Ahwireng, Managing Director of Modec, commended the trainees on their dedication to the training goals.<\/p>\n
He observed that a number of the trainees had been requested (by the Brazil office) to return for a further extension of the programme.<\/p>\n
This, he said, was testament to the focus and hard work the trainees had put into their own development.<\/p>\n
Mr. Kwaku Boateng, Director for Localisation, Petroleum Commission who represented the Deputy CEO of Petroleum Commission at the event, extended compliments from the CEO, the Board and Management of the Petroleum Commission to MPSG and its stakeholders.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have by this training programme, demonstrated commitment to enhancing local content in Ghana. This is an excellent initiative which feeds into Government\u2019s overarching agenda to develop the country\u2019s human resource base for increased participation in the Oil and Gas industry\u201d, Mr. Boateng said.<\/p>\n
He noted that more of such initiatives were encouraged in the industry to develop the competencies of Ghanaians and urged MPSG to do even to develop local talent.<\/p>\n
The MPSG-MdB Secondment Training programme was launched in January this year with the support of Tullow Ghana Limited (TGL) and the Petroleum Commission with the aim of developing the capabilities of bright local professionals with the right skillsets, through on-the-job training and best practice transfer at MODEC\u2019s state of the art facilities in Brazil.<\/p>\n
The first cohort of 15 participants were selected based on performance and across various onshore departments to participant in the 2019 training programme.<\/p>\n
