Industry Snapshot
Across many resource-rich emerging economies, local-content policy has driven a rapid rise in domestic operator numbers and in-country investment, yet production frequently fails to scale proportionally. Skills shortages and continued dependence on imported equipment are consistently identified by regulators as the two central barriers to the next phase of growth.
Case in point, Nigeria: local content has grown from under 5% before the 2010 Nigerian Oil and Gas Industry Content Development Act to more than 61% today, drawing over $20 billion in in-country investment and expanding upstream operators from fewer than ten to 117, alongside nearly 11,800 registered service companies.
Challenges and Industry Gaps
- Persistent skills shortages and import dependence for critical equipment and machinery
- Fragmentation of assets among many small operators, reducing the efficiency a single integrated development could achieve
- Contractor-financed project models that create severe cash-flow pressure for indigenous service companies, with some waiting months or years for payment on certified work
- Continued production shortfalls against quota, driven by theft, pipeline downtime, and underinvestment in a number of producing regions
- Reliance on imported crude at domestic refining facilities even in countries holding substantial proven reserves
How do We fill the gap
- Deploy owned drilling rig assets directly to operators who cannot justify the capital cost of ownership, converting a financing barrier into a service EMCS can supply
- Provide project financing structuring specifically aimed at the cash-flow distress created by contractor-financed marginal-field models
- Deliver technical procurement and equipment sourcing that reduces reliance on imported machinery, aligned with local content and equipment-manufacturing localisation policy wherever it applies
- Offer engineering and consolidation advisory that helps fragmented, small-scale assets achieve the efficiency of a single, well-managed development
