From Ownership to Competence: The Role of Maritime Training & Capacity Development.
Strengthening local content goes beyond vessel ownership, it requires investing in people, operational excellence, and sustainable capability.
At the Strategic Conference during 2026, our Head of Commercial & Business Development, Temidayo E. Dahunsi, joined industry leaders to discuss how maritime training, technical competence, and continuous investment in indigenous capacity are critical to building a stronger, globally competitive maritime sector.
Strengthening local content requires oil and gas operators to deliberately support indigenous marine service companies that have demonstrated long-term commitment to the industry, not only through the acquisition of quality marine assets, but also through consistent investment in vessel maintenance, the development of competent personnel, efficient operational systems, and compliance with internationally recognized safety and operational standards.
At XPO Marine Services, we remain committed to advancing local content through competence, collaboration, and long-term industry development.
