Global Standards, Local Capacity: What Investors Need to See in Nigeria's Oil and Gas.

4:59Samuel DiminasGUEST
I will address the first issue you raised, which is how do we maintain quality and standards? So how do we operate within the highest global standards, maintaining the same quality you would expect globally while operating in countries like Nigeria and our West Africa or African countries? There is a lopsided technological capacity because most of the Equipment and technology we utilized are not developed in Africa.

5:33Samuel DiminasGUEST
But one of the easiest ways in which the African countries are growing, in which companies within the sector are building capacity on what we do is to leverage on international alliances and partnerships.
S
5:50Samuel DiminasGUEST
That is very, very important because Though Nigeria is the most mature within the industry, the industry is still young compared to what you have in other areas globally.

So like our own company, as you stated when we started, we are an American-based company, which means we do have American companies.

I was just watching the the TV recently and and they said with most of the of course there's a graduated season and most people were like when they mentioned AI people like oh the students would kind of you know boo and think so again there's this it's this it's a journalist faced type of conversation when you think about digital transformation and innovation and all but it remains a critical component part of every sector and so As we begin to see digital transformation, sustainability, and new energy technologies reshape the global industry, what steps is Westpac taking really to kind of marry these advanced engineering tools, you know, automation, sustainable practices and, you know, operational excellence into your current services and that's one side of it and the second one is how do you see these innovations shaping the future of oil and gas sector and creating new opportunities for US-Nigeria collaboration?
