National Wealth, Not Just Oil Wealth: The Case for Local Content

Executive Conference Room
Executive Conference
As Suriname’s oil and gas industry navigates an increasingly complex and dynamic global landscape, this panel discussion challenges key stakeholders—including international oil companies (IOCs), governments, businesses, and civil society—to set aside emotion, prioritize collaboration, and adopt a results-driven mindset. The call to action is clear: the alliance must gain greater insight, broader access, and a meaningful seat at the table when it comes to data, information, and authority. Only by understanding what is truly needed can the sector mobilize effectively, professionalize its efforts, and forge strong, solution-focused partnerships. This is the path forward—transforming today’s oil into tomorrow’s opportunity.
