Petroleum Advisor to Guyana’s President, Dr. Jan Mangal, says the South American country’s government needs to take firm steps towards “opening the doors” to professionals as part of a policy to attract skills which are badly needed in the emerging oil and gas industry.
“The Government really needs to bite the bullet and pay for oil and gas professionals to come in and I know traditionally here there is a reluctance to do that because it is difficult when you look at what expatriates earn as compared to locals, it is ridiculous, but that is how the industry works,” he told reporters last week during an interview.
