Oil and gas workers and those seeking to enter the industry in Malaysia now have access to globally recognised qualifications and training thanks to a ground-breaking agreement between OPITO and PETRONAS.
The Malaysian national oil company and the international oil and gas skills body signed a strategic skills memorandum of understanding in 2012 to help build a safe and competent, indigenous oil and gas workforce and establish INSTEP as a globally recognised centre of technical excellence.
The outcomes of this agreement, announced today, have seen seven training centres in South-east Asia become accredited to deliver emergency response training to international standards and the world’s first OPITO-approved qualification centre delivering technical training to globally recognised qualifications.
