Africa Oil Week, held in Accra, Ghana, has conversely brought to the fore Oilserv’s unparalleled technological ingenuity, palpably rooted in project execution and operations, and which has continued to generate global energy stakeholders' interaction towards building robust and strategic alliances across the African energy corridor.

In the Local Content Plenary Session co-hosted by the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB) and the Petroleum Commission of Ghana, Engr. Chukwuka F.D. Eze, Managing Director of Frazimex Engineering Limited, speaking on behalf of the Group CEO of Oilserv Group, Engr. Dr. Emeka Okwuosa, CON, tasked industry leaders to come together to tackle an urgent question concerning Africa's implementation of cross-border oil and gas projects.

 Alongside representatives from Chemslov Ghana and AFREC Senegal in the panel session, Engr. Chukwuka Eze highlighted Oilserv’s Pan-African established technology footprints transcending from Nigeria to Benin, Ghana, Togo, and Uganda, where it is currently delivering world-class gas infrastructure, and this has proven that African expertise can be transferred geographically to African benefits.

“Behind landmark projects like the 40-inch x 614km (Segment 1) of the Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano (AKK) Gas Pipeline Project and the massive 48-inch x 64km Lot B of Obiafu-Obrikom-Oben (OB3) Gas Pipeline Project, Frazimex ib providing the engineering brilliance that turns vision into reality. At Oilserv Group, we’re not just building pipelines, we’re connecting nations, unlocking prosperity, and shaping Africa’s energy future.” He stated.

Moderated by Paul Morton (Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer), the panel brought together technical, policy, and commercial perspectives with the Key Highlights session centering on::

· Adopt cross-border participation quotas (e.g., dedicate a percentage of project content to firms from other African countries) and create standardized recognition for qualification certificates issued by national boards.

· Introduce regional movement accords for energy professionals to remove visa friction for project work.

· Expand continent-wide, searchable opportunity platforms (building on the African Partner Pool concept) that publish tender pipelines and service-provider credentials.

· Embed mandatory local/regional apprenticeship and graduate training clauses into contract awards so every major project becomes a development vehicle.

· Sponsor multi-country pilot projects to test procurement models, shared infrastructure usage, and liability allocations, then scale successful pilots.

· NCDMB’s Catalyst Role through various platforms drives indigenous participation, creating opportunities for trusted cross-border partnerships.

The plenary reinforced a powerful truth that Africa has the resources, the technical expertise, and the nascent institutional architecture to deliver its own energy future, if leaders convert the momentum of conversation into durable, cross-border action. Oilserv has demonstrated a commercial and technical blueprint to practically place the continent toward achieving its aspiration of cross-border oil and gas projects.
