MATRADE & Schlumberger to Collaborate In Global Sourcing Prog for Oil & Gas Sector
TUESDAY, MARCH 31, KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE) and world’s leading supplier of technology, integrated project management and information solutions in the oil and gas industry, Schlumberger, are collaborating to organise an event called "Global Sourcing Programme: Business Opportunities with Schlumbergerâ€. The event is set to take place on 8 April 2015 at MATRADE Hall, Menara MATRADE, Kuala Lumpur.
The event will feature a series of presentation by experts on the opportunities in Schlumberger. The topics to be presented are;
• Chemical, Logistic and Indirect Categories;
• Surface Equipment & Services and Drilling & Evaluation;
• Asia Procurement Hub; and
• Brunei-Malaysia-Philippines (BMP) Third Party Purchase.
Apart from the presentation, there will also be a half-day Individual Business Meetings (IBM) on the day between selected Malaysian companies and the representatives from Schlumberger. The business meetings are aimed at creating a platform for local companies to showcase their products or services to the Schlumberger’s technical team.
Malaysian companies focusing on Chemicals and Logistics (C&L), Drilling & Evaluation (D&E), Surface Equipment and Service (SES) and Indirect (Employee relocation, Engineering & Construction, IT hardware/Software, Telecom services, Staffing, Travel agency and others) are urged to take part in the IBM.
The programme’s objectives are to create awareness among Malaysian companies (especially those producing oil & gas services and equipment) on the procurement and sourcing process as well as to share the success stories of Malaysian companies that have succeeded in Global Sourcing.
This sourcing-based programme is a good avenue for Malaysian companies to promote their products and services directly to a Multinational company such as Schlumberger and to be part of its global supply chain. Such a programme will also offers Schlumberger an opportunity to scout for more competitive products and services from Malaysia that has been supplying oil, gas services and equipment to the world for over three decades.
Interested Malaysian companies can contact Mr. Khairul Hakimi (03-6207 7682) or Ms. Norzulaila Mohd Dzafri (03-6207 7144) to participate in the event
