FOREWORD

Now in its third Year, this annual meeting is poised to grow in strength. The Journey in this industry has been a roller coaster ride. With the latest finding by Statoil, see story on pg 19, to the First gas ready to be sent to Dar es Salaam via the new pipeline, on pg 34. Such achievements need to be celebrat-ed. Behind every successful economy is the entrepreneurship spirit of its people who not only generate revenue to the country but creates Job, alleviate poverty, increase The GDP and all that sundry which would be ingredients to a robust economy.

It’s up to us to take this opportunity in this neo oil and gas industry in Tanzania and create a robust econ-omy by being part of the value chain. The importance of Local Content is highlighted in this catalogue.

The proposed Draft local content policy by the Ministry of energy and Minerals has been well received. The brief specifically dedicated to the value chain are on page 36.

TOGSC is aimed at being the ultimate link between the value chain and the stakeholders in the Oil and Gas Industry in Tanzania by empowering and building capacity. Careers in this field are very lucrative, you can make your own judgement by reading about it on pg 26.

We believe in the power of networking, your network is your net worth. Bringing all stakeholders under one roof, that could lead to emergence of new business opportunities, strengthening of existing relations and more important visibility of Company and brands.

There is an African Proverb which says “If you want to go fast…go alone. If you want to go far…go together.” And thus together with Government support and that of all local stakeholders we can go far and take this nascent industry to a cataclysmic height which shall benefit all, directly and indirectly

Thanks to the almighty God, for giving me the zeal and zest to pursue this venture passionately. My deep appreciation goes to the Ministry Of Energy and Mineral, all our Speakers, sponsors, exhibitors, advertisers and delegates who have made this year’s Tanzania Oil & Gas Suppliers Conference a reality

We look forward to your continued patronage in building the Tanzania Oil & Gas Suppliers community, championing the Local content

EXPLORATION HISTORY IN TANzANIA

www.togsc.com 21

EXPLORATION HISTORY Tanzania has been intermittently explored over the last 60 years. Most of the multinational petroleum companies were represented in the area, at one time or another. Significant gas discoveries were made at Songo Song, Mnazi Bay and in the south-ern deepsea basin opposite Ruvuma. More than 50 exploration wells and development wells have been drilled providing vital geological information of the subsurface and potential for hydrocarbons. The cumulative seismic coverage in public domain is approximately 100,000 km; 70,000 km offshore and 30,000 km onshore, including theinterior rift basins. About 15,000 square km of 3D seismic data has been acquired in the offshore areas.

ARTICLE

Exploration Timeline and Phases Phase V: Year2000-Present This phase was marked by the acquisition of an open grid 2D seismic survey by TPDC and Western Geco over the deep-water areas offshore Tanzania in the Year 1999 - 2000. Nearly 11,000live km of high resolution 2D seismic data was acquired.

The interpretation of the new data led to the licencing of all the areas between the 2002 - 2007 to Petrobras (Blk - 5, 2004), Ophir (Blk - 1, 2005), Ophir (Blks - 3, 4, 2006), Sta-toil (Blk - 2, 2007), Dominion (Blk - 7, 20_), Petrobras (Blk - 8, 2012).

Following the licencing, a large amount 70,000 live km of 2D seismic data and 15,000 square km of 3D seismic data were acquired in all the blocks. This was followed by exploration drilling of wells BG( Blks - 1,2,3), Statoil (Blk - 2) and Petro-bras (Blk - 5), making significant gas discoveries in blocks 1, 2, 3 and 4. Further exploration, including appraisal drilling is envisuged for the years 2012/13.

Phase IV: Year1992-1999At the start of this phase there were no active concessions and little activity except for various studies, and a dedicat-ed effort by the authorities to achieve fiscal and technical agreements for the development of the Songo Songo gas field. TPDC, Tanesco, and Canadian companies, Ocelot and Trans-Canada Pipelines, are actively working on the Songo Songo gas field development, transmission and utilization. Beginning in l995 a number of international companies ac-quired exploration licenses in the coastal basins. Tanganyika Oil Company, in 1996/97, drilled two wells in the Mandawa Basin. Exploration agreements have been signed with Antrim and Canop, both of Calgary, Canada and Ndovu Resourc-es of Australia. Discussion are underway with Pemba Inter-national of Calgary Canada for a PSA over Kimbiji/Ruvu areas. Agreements to develop the Mnazi Bay gas discovery and to build a power generation plant are being negotiated. Phase III: Year1980-1991Adoption of The Petroleum (Exploration and Production) Act of l980 and high oil prices, encouraged increased activity. Most of the drilling in Tanzania occurred in this period, in-cluding the delineation of the Songo Songo Gas Field and the gas discovery at Mnazi Bay (l982) by AGIP. TPDC partic-ipated in Songo Songo development, drilling two wildcats at Kimbiji and several seismic programs. Increased interest in the interior rifts, partially as a result of Project PROBE, resulted in AMOCO drilling two wells in the Rukwa Rift basin. Shell drilled Dira-1, in Mafia Channel in 1991 and relinguished the license in the same year. Phase II: Year1969-1979The State Company, Tanzania Petroleum Development Cor-poration (TPDC) was established in 1969, and the first Pro-duction Sharing Agreement (PSA) was signed with AGIP on former BP/Shell concessions. During this period large region-al, on and offshore, seismic surveys were conducted. AGIP, joined by Amoco in 1973, drilled three onshore and two off-shore wells, including the significant gas discovery at Son-go Songo in l974. The discovery was confirmed by TPDC in 1975-79, through a three well program one of which (SS-2) was a blow-out.

Phase I: Year1952-1964 BP and Shell were awarded concessions along the coast, in-cluding the large islands of Mafia, Zanzibar and Pemba. Ex-tensive geological work was conducted including the drilling of more than 100 stratigraphic shallow boreholes, gravity, aeromagnetic, and reflection and refraction seismic surveys. A thick sedimentary section was identified and four wildcats were drilled, one each on Zanzibar, Pemba, and Mafia Is-lands and another onshore in the Mandawa Salt Basin. Al-though the wells did not encounter significant hydrocarbon shows, they confirmed the presence of seal, reservoir and source rocks combinations in the stratigraphic column.

P.A.DEVELOPING TANzANIA’S FUTURE TODAY

“The dreaded curse! We need to hit the ground running, but don’t have the runners. The Government demands that we justify employing foreigners and we can’t when Tanza-nians “with requisite qualifications” exist in the market but, truth is they don’t, do they? I mean, this is not a regular Mom and Pop shop, it’s the Oil & Gas Sector for crying out loud!”

Sound familiar?

Human resource challenges are not particular to Tanzania or the Oil & Gas sector for that matter but, who cares how bad it is and who else is affected elsewhere, when the bottom line’s accusingly blinking at you like a fuel gauge screaming “Empty, Empty, Empty!”

You. You should care about how widespread this shortage of skilled labour with a responsible work ethic is because, for the duration of your contract and that of your compa-ny’s, you have chosen to invest yourselves in Tanzania and you’re in it for the long haul.

So how do you focus on overcoming all the hurdles it takes to set up and get going and keeping your commitments to stakeholders when recruiting and retaining Tanzanians with requisite mindset, knowledge and skills to run operations are so few and those few so costly?

Simple. To get what you want out of the system, you need to make an investment of that caliber into the system. I know you are not the Red Cross, neither am I mistaking you for the Salvation Army but, if you want people who fit your job description, you have to develop them to fit.

You see, Tanzania is potentially the most attractive African investment destination for the extractive industries (not to men-tion agribusiness, tourism, telecoms, financial sector, etcetera) in Africa yet, she has neither in the Country nor the Diaspora, today or foreseeable future, the expertise, to lead her own socio-economic transformation.

P.A.D.eveloping Tanzania’s Future Today is Professional Ap-proach Development’s solution to this paradox and specific challenges of the Oil & Gas sector. Having conducted a sur-vey with human resource practitioners, employers and policy makers in the Sector, the results were not surprising as 100% of respondents cited the below 6 top competency gaps of Tanzania’s human resource at both junior, mid and senior lev-els; 1. Mindset, Transformative Education and Relevant technical skills 2. Strategic, Critical and Creative thinking, 3. Entrepreneurial Risk-taking and Accountability 4. Business Ethics and Etiquette 5. Leadership and Management, 6. Written and Spoken Business Communication,

NEW LAW TO ENABLE LOCALS INVEST IN GAS SECTOR

Epiphania KimaroDodoma — A NEW law on gas and oil will enable local individ-uals and companies to INVEST in the sector through partnership. The remarks were made yesterday by experts in the gas and oil industries during a one-day seminar at the Bunge grounds.The seminar aimed at educating Members of Parliament (MPs) on the importance of the law and how it will protect and ensure the natural resource benefits local Tanzanians.In his presentation on ‘Oil and Gas Law,’ one of the experts, Dr Medard Kalemani, said all important issues, such as contracts, will be included in the law.

“Royalties to the government which is 12.5 per cent for onshore and 7.5 per cent offshore mining of oil and gas respectively will be included in the new law.All contracts will be standard,” he explained. He said the new law on oil and gas will put in place requirements for transpar-ency and accountability on the handling of natural gas and oil.Dr Kalemani said currently oil and gas industries were managed under 9 different laws, stressing that once the new law was op-erational, it will entail amendments to the others.

Earlier, while opening the seminar, the Minister for Energy and Minerals, Mr George Simbachawene, said there were a num-ber of laws which needed to be amended, including the law on oil of 1980, the petroleum law of 2008 and the land law of 1999.The minister said there was a need for new laws and policies as the nation kept discovering new deposits of natural gas to ensure the resource benefited the locals.He said the new law is a result of lack of a proper law on oil and gas resources in the country, which will protect the interests of Tanzanians. The new law on oil and gas will also establish the Petroleum Upstream Regulatory Authority (PURA).

Prof Florence Luoga, who is among a panel of experts advis-ing the government on oil and gas, stressed the importance of the law in safeguarding the interests of the public.He said the government should learn from other nations and how they have benefited from the sector before coming up with policies in the sector.Some of the legislators who contributed during the discussions called for the law to be clear on all principle issues of pub-lic interests, including protecting the resource and government earnings.

The oil and gas industry is an exciting, international, vibrant, skilled and varied industry to work for. The scope of work under-taken in the oil and gas industry is vast. It often works with cutting edge technology and has an excellent health and safety record; but it also operates in remote, offshore locations, in difficult cli-mates and very high-risk environments.

Recruitment within the oil and gas sector is different from any other industry out there. This is because the energy industry is one that has not had to ‘downsize’ because of the economic recession unlike many other industries, in fact the oil and gas industry is on the rise.Rather than adopting a ‘slash and burn’ policy of job cuts, clos-ing production and generally reacting in the same way to the global recession as every other industry, the oil and gas sector has managed to survive the most uncertain of economic times by freezing wages and waiting for the storm to pass. That storm has now abated and the industry has emerged stronger, leaner and ready to do business on a grand scale.

The world’s demand for petroleum-based products has increased, not decreased, and new ways of tapping into the planet’s re-sources are being explored on a daily basis. The one knock-on effect of this increased level of exploration and industry stability means that oil and gas jobs are now highly desirable and plen-tiful.Oil and gas engineers are constantly inventing new technologies to extract oil from increasingly deeper levels beneath the Earth’s surface. Because of this exploration, engineers are trained to be the best in their field, and there are new and excellent opportu-nities for career progression.This industry has evolved along with the rest of the world and has realized the need to develop new ways of producing clean energy for the global market. There are few industries that can offer such long-term prospects and employment opportunities, but these can be found in Unconventional Gas (UCG); this is a relatively new field that is growing rapidly and offers people the chance to develop skills that can be utilized on projects world-wide.

CAREER IN OIL & GAS INDUSTRY

www.togsc.com 27

tipsUCG is a perfect example of where new technologies and new employment opportunities are developing both worldwide and across the UK.

Large-scale coal mining ended some time ago but coal did not ‘run out’ and thanks to new technologies and the need to find alternative energy sources, the growth of the Coalbed Methane (CBM) market looks set to continue for decades to come.

This is an exciting field of work both for existing oil and gas spe-cialists as well as those looking for re-training opportunities, and for those who have faced redundancy from areas of industry that have declined in recent years.”Companies are making the oil and gas industry even more di-verse, and in turn creating additional job opportunities. The in-dustry on the whole employs a huge skills base and rewards those who are prepared to work hard, use their initiative and are ambitious, with this comes good pay and ample opportunity for advancement.The depletion of the skills base for jobs in a growing sector has been a worrying statistic in many reports over the last few years and one that needs to be tackled. Alongside the industry boom, a great deal of publicity has been given to the so-called ‘skills gap’ or ‘talent shortage’. This is especially true for engineers, who are the lifeblood of the oil and gas sector.A maturing workforce, a lack of investment during the 1990s and early 2000s and an increase in science, technology, engi-neering and Maths graduates choosing a career in the City as opposed to the oil and gas industry have all been contributors to the situation we now face.Oil and gas companies are looking to hire experienced and highly-skilled engineering professionals from a wide range of disciplines but the fact is that demand for oil and gas profes-sionals has outstripped supply.Recruiting staff from other industries where engineers can trans-fer their skills to oil and gas is very common. An industry such as Defence is an area where companies are targeting and hav-ing success in attracting engineers with high-technology back-grounds. Although the opposite can be said for the oil and gas industry, most engineers once in oil and gas feel they do not want to transfer elsewhere.Recruiters are busy finding a new generation of workers, and training programmes have sprung up to prepare them. Some young people are signing on for jobs that promise good pay — but there are still a lot of positions to fill.There is a range of career opportunities in the oil and gas sec-tor. Careers in the industry, generally speaking are long-term, well paid, can offer excellent progression and development and there’s extensive travel opportunities with jobs worldwide.Oil and gas is so diverse that if you don’t like the idea of trav-elling or working offshore there are related opportunities which are still in the industry, but don’t actually involve working away from home. A lot of the oil and gas companies have facilities have scientific or engineering research and laboratory functions and it is here where the instrumentation and technical equipment that is used in the industry is designed and developed. So scien-tists and engineers can be directly involved with the oil and gas sector without having to work offshore at all. Opportunities for physics, chemistry, software, electronics and engineering disci-plines are very much in demand within these facilities.

The increase in talent demand resulting from so many projects getting the go-ahead has widened the talent gap even further than industry expectations. The future of the oil and gas industry is solid, so long as there is the talent to keep it running.

If you are still unsure if this industry is for you, below are common advantages and disadvantages of working in the industry.

Oil & gas jobs and rig jobs – advantages

1. Great pay – for engineers who choose to work in the sector, the financial rewards can be attractive. When it comes to the pay packet of oil and gas jobs and rig jobs, they can compete with any industry in the world. For the same job that you do on land, your pay is hiked by a good percentage when you are offshore and working on the rig.2. For engineers who choose to work in the sector, the financial rewards can be attractive. According to the Oil and Gas Global Salary Guide 2012, industry professionals in the sector enjoy more than twice the national salary average. 3. Good career prospects - you may start at the bottom of the ladder as a roustabout but hard work and dedication will soon see you move up the ladder.4. Variation of roles and excellent training packages at regular intervals.5. Great opportunities for international travel.

Oil & gas jobs and rig jobs – disadvantages

1. You can be away from family and friends a lot – some find it difficult to cope with the ‘Fly In, Fly Out’ rosters.2. Difficult working environment – sometimes having to work in remote, hot, difficult environments.3. Cramped living – the living quarters are not exactly penthouse suites.4. Lack of privacy – lack of privacy in oil and gas jobs and rig jobs is one turn-off for many people. You seem to share every-thing with your colleagues – right from your soap to your towel.5. Finally, as a general rule, the oil and gas projects require highly skilled workers, with good levels of numeracy and literacy. Maths and science certificates are required in many of the jobs in oil and gas sector, and training for the various categories of jobs/careers can often take at least three years.

There are many ways to enter into the booming industry, including:

• Straight from school or college and progress through op-erator and technician roles onwards up to craftsperson sta-tus• Through apprenticeships such as the ‘Apprenticeship in Process Technology’, oil and gas extraction industry or chemicals manufacturing and petroleum industries• Vocational qualifications such as Process Engineering Maintenance or Operations and Maintenance Engineering• Higher education courses that have been designed to equip graduates with practical and hands on knowledge• In house training and development, of which there is a strong tradition in the sector

The Tanzanian Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC) re-cently announced that the new regional gas pipeline to Dar es Salaam is approximately 95% complete and it is anticipated that the main pipeline contractor will hand over the management of the infrastructure including the processing plants to TPDC late Q3 2015.Geoff Bury, Managing Director, of Wentworth Resources com-mented: “We are very encouraged by the progress of the pipe-line infrastructure and all aspects of the gas pipeline project. Whilst completion and commissioning delays will impact the tim-ing and amount of expected cash flow generated in 2015, we see clear, tangible progress towards first gas being delivered into the new pipeline in the summer and look forward to ramping up volumes of gas supply, helped by additional production ca-pacity expected from the MB-4 development well.“In light of this delay, we are continuing to work on securing additional debt financing to ensure that we have sufficient funds available to see us through to first cashflow. With the pipeline project nearing completion and a signed long-term Gas Sales Agreement, Wentworth and the Mnazi Bay Partners are well positioned to be the first suppliers of gas into the new pipeline.” Bury added.

ABOUT MTWARA to DAR ES SALAAM – GAS PIPELINE

Brief• 512-kilometre pipeline from Mtwara to Dar es Salaam to scale up the amount of gas transported to Dar es salaam plants for electricity generation and supply for the country• The project would cost 1.86 trillion shillings ($1.2 billion) when completed.

Significance• The pipeline will have the capacity to transport 784 cu-bic feet of gas per day, which will generate 3,920 MW of electricity.• Tanzania’s current demand is 720 MW per day. By gener-ating 3,920 MW through domestic gas reserves, the country would have a surplus of more than 3,000 MW• Savings from low cost gas power generation would be passed on to industrial and other users, raising Tanzania’s competitiveness and growth prospects.

TANzANIA LOCAL CONTENT DRAFT POLICY IN BRIEF

BACKGROUND

Delivering local benefits to the communities where oil and gas companies operate is no longer an option. It is a commercial ne-cessity — and one that is increasingly mandated by law in many countries. In the new competitive landscape of diminishing supply and increasing demand for energy resources, companies in the oil and gas industry face rising expectations to do more than simply mitigate negative impacts, serve as sources of tax/royalty reve-nue and act as good neighbours. To respond to the above, this policy outlines that among other things, the oil and gas industry in collaboration with the Govern-ment needs to do the following:

(i)Develop a baseline data/information to identify the current capacity and capabilities for Tanzanians to be employed and owned companies to become suppliers; (ii) Develop needs assessment of the required capacities to de-ploy the Tanzanian experts in the oil and gas industry; (iii) Iden-tify the areas in which there is no capacity and capabilities and it will not be sustainable for Tanzania to have such a category in place; (iv) Identify potential partner companies who support our strat-egy and will help deliver it; and (v) Identify ways in which this development will be report-ed, monitored, measured and evaluated through a regulated framework for local content with aim of continuous improve-ment.

This policy defines the Local Content as the added value brought to a host nation (and regional and local areas in that country) through the activities of the oil and gas industry.

This may be measured (by project, affiliate, and/or country ag-gregate) and undertaken through two main attributes: (i)Workforce development, through employment and training of local workforce; (ii)Investments in supplier development through developing and procuring supplies and services locally; While the main National Energy Policy 2003 addresses is-sues pertaining to local content, related policies in oil and gas sub-sector have all emphasized broadly on enhanced local con-tent, without detailing on the level of participation of Tanzanian nationals and Tanzanian owned companies. The Natural Gas Policy of 2013 came up even more precisely by anchoring itself on a principle pillar that “Natural gas resource found in Tanzania belongs to Tanzanians; and must be managed in a way that benefits the entire Tanzanian society”. This strong statement and other provisions of the Natural Gas Policy are the basis of this local content policy for the oil and gas industry. Thus, the Local Content policy aims at: (i) Devising Local Content implementation strategies for the de-velopment of competitive, capable, and sustainable Local labour. The policy aims at generating and promoting adequate supply of Local workforce with the necessary knowledge and skills. (ii) Developing strategies for fostering the transfer of technology and knowledge. The Government will also need to invest heavily in research and development if it has to seize the high calibre opportunities in the oil and gas industry. (iii) setting a mechanism that will enable Tanzanians and their businesses to tap the opportunities to manage, supply goods, services and labour

CURRENT STATUS OF LOCAL CONTENT IN THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY IN TANzANIA The current status of the Oil and Gas Industry in Tanzania is as described in the subsequent sub chapters: 1.2.1. Oil and Gas Resource Potentials The Petroleum exploration activities in the country have led to the following gas discoveries: (i) Songo Songo in Kilwa District – Lindi – which is under ex-ploitation for power generation in Dar es Salaam and for use in industries; (ii) Mnazi Bay in Mtwara – which is also under limited exploita-tion for power generation; (iii) Mkuranga, Coast region – which is under appraisal; (iv) Kiliwani/East SongoSongo area also under appraisal; (v) Deep-sea Blocks 1, 3 and 4 by Ophir/BG South East of Mafia Island and East of Mnazi Bay- some fields are still under explo-ration while others are under appraisal; (vi) Deep-sea Block-2 East of Lindi town by Statoil/ExxonMobil- some fields are still under exploration while others are under appraisal; (vii) Ntorya in Mtwara by Ndovu Resources/Aminex- the field is planned for appraisal. Up to 2013, the total discovered natural gas reserves in the country amounts to 46.5 trillion cubic feet (TCF) of which about 8 TCF are from onshore fields of Songo Songo, Mnazi Bay, Mku-ranga, Kiliwani North and Ntorya. The remaining resources were

discovered offshore in deep waters be-tween years 2010 and 2013.

1.2.2. Human Resource Capacity and Avail-ability Tanzania has few local experts in the oil and gas industry, most of whom are serving in public sector. These experts are capable of operating and maintaining the respective facilities e.g. the wells and gas processing plants in the producing gas fields of Songo Songo and Mnazi Bay. Following the huge discoveries of natural gas, skill shortages across the industry value chain has become apparent. It is important for Tanzania to develop more local experts in the oil and gas industry who will be ca-pable of operating and maintaining the imminent gas facilities resulting from these new discoveries. This policy aims at devising Local Content implementation strategies for the development of competitive, capable, and sustainable Local labour. The policy aims at generating and promoting ade-quate supply of Local workforce with the necessary knowledge and skills. The com-panies and government entities will be ex-pected to work together to support the de-velopment of adequate local skills that are necessary to fulfil the strategic and opera-tional objectives of the oil and gas sector. 1.2.3. Technology Availability and Applica-tion Because of the technological advancement in the petroleum sector and its use of spe-cialized input, technology and knowledge, Tanzania has adopted the use of Produc-tion Sharing Agreements (PSAs) that allows the International Oil Companies (IOCs) to transfer their technology, knowledge and fi-nance. Tanzania hires multinational compa-nies in the oil and gas industry on merits of their technological and financial capabili-ties. Apart from the PSA requirement for the IOCs to endeavour to transfer technology, Tanzania has not put in place Local Content implementation strategies for the transfer of technology and knowledge. This Local Content Policy aims at developing strate-gies for fostering the transfer of technology and knowledge. The Government will also need to invest heavily in research and de-velopment if it has to seize the high calibre opportunities in the oil and gas industry.

1.2.4. Financing Options (Credits/Loans/Insurance/etc.) Exploitation of oil and gas is a risky under-takings and capital intensive business that local financial institutions and insurance com-panies cannot support. Currently, all financ-ing of operations in exploration of oil and gas in Tanzania are through risky capital paid for by either oil companies’ own equi-ty or by international multilateral banks. On the other hand, Oil Companies also insure their assets, operations and equipment with insurance brokers through reinsurance with ‘A’ rated International Insurance Companies. Local businesses that provide services to oil companies are currently necessitated to raise the required operating capital through commercial loans from local commercial banks under difficult financing terms. The lack of concessionary loans for equity fi-nancing of local businesses have made ex-pansion of local businesses to match their foreign counter-part in provision of goods and services to the oil and gas industry a difficult undertaking. In addition, the current PSAs in force require oil companies (Contractors) to oblige their sub-contractors to carry insurance of such type and in such amount as is customary applicable in accordance with Good Oil-field Practices. Further to that, oil compa-nies at all times are also required to effect insurance to cover any loss or damage to all assets during petroleum operations. This practice denies opportunities to local insur-ance companies to participate in the oil and gas industry in Tanzania. Tanzania need to develop a mechanism to support Tanzanians to participate in the provision of goods and services in the oil and gas industry. This policy is intended to set a mechanism that will enable Tanzanians and their businesses to tap the opportuni-ties to manage, supply goods, services and labour. 1.2.5. Current Local Content Practices (Em-ployment, Capacity Building & Supply of Goods and Services) Local content requirements for the upstream operations in the oil and gas industry are currently enshrined in the Model Production Sharing Agreement (MPSA). The MPSA is the basis for the individual contracts (PSAs) signed between the operators and the Gov-ernment/TPDC for exploration and produc-tion of oil and gas. The local content pro-visions are stipulated under Article 20 and

21 of the MPSA 2013 and are period-ically improved to reflect the develop-ment in the industry. The MPSA 2013 contains the latest lo-cal content requirements, but they are so far not yet adopted into any effective contract. TPDC has the obligation to monitor com-pliance to the PSA Local Content provi-sions on behalf of the Ministry of Energy and Minerals in accordance to the Petro-leum (Exploration and Production) Act, 1980. However, the provisions allow for alternative sourcing if the local market is unable to meet the standards and quan-tities demanded by the industry. JUSTIFICATION/rationale FOR LOCAL CONTENT POLICY 2.1. OVERVIEW OF LOCAL CONTENT IN TANZANIA Based on the rapid growth in its oil and gas industry, the exploration activities in large part of the country, discovery of remarkable amount of natural gas both on and off – shore are anticipat-ed to significantly contribute to the socio – economic development of the country and certainly raise the living standard of Tanzanians. For Tanzania to attain mid-dle income status by 2025, it has to in-crease its GDP per capita of about $600 in 2014? to around $3000 in 2025?. This can be achieved by, among others, ra-tionalising the exploitation of its oil and gas industry resource and increased lo-cal participation in the value chain. The Local Content Policy is intended to provide guiding principles for the par-ticipation and transformation of Tanza-nians in the development of the oil and gas industry to ensure optimal benefits to Tanzanians and attain sustainable na-tional economic development in the short, medium and long terms perspectives. The formulation of this Policy is aligned with existing strategies as well as policies and legislation, including the National Development Vision 2025, the National Energy Policy [2003], the Empowerment Policy and Act 2004, the Natural Gas Policy, 2013, the Five Year Development Plan (2011/12 - 2015/16) and the Second National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty 2010/11 - 2014/15 (NSGRP/MKUKUTA II). Despite of having all the above instru-ments, the local content policy is meant

www.togsc.com 38

to link and enable those policies to be achievable and create the impact they were intended for. Additionally, this Local Content Policy is a tool to implement the Natural Gas Development Road Map, 2013 (Item 7) of which objective is to develop the capacity of Tanzanians to participate strategically in the natural gas value chain. A Local Content Policy Road Map will be developed. 2.2. KEY FOCUS AREAS The policy has identified five key focus areas to address, namely; • Capacity Building and technology transfer; • Participation of Tanzanians and Tanzanian owned entities; • Procurement and usage of locally produced goods and services; • Fabrication and manufacturing in-country; • Socio-economic responsibilities.

2.3. VISION AND MISSION Vision A developed oil and gas industry with several local firms provid-ing goods and services, including fabrication and manufacturing as well as huge workforce employed in the entire industry to max-imize benefits arising from oil and gas value chain. Mission To create an enabling environment and opportunities for Tanzani-ans to benefit from the economic wealth derived from the oil and gas industry in the course of local participation in the ownership, operations, control and management. 2.4. OBJECTIVES OF THE LOCAL CONTENT POLICY This Policy recognizes that oil, natural gas and minerals are Na-tional resources that belong to the people of the United Republic of Tanzania. It is therefore inherent that Tanzanians must be

engaged in the entire value chain in order to ensure its benefits to the entire Tanzanian society, for present and future generations. 2.4.1. Main Objective The main objective of the Local Content Policy is to provide the guiding principles for maximum engagement of local content and local participation in the development of the oil and gas industry to ensure optimal benefits to Tanzanians. To achieve this goal, the Government and people of Tanzania shall participate in the oil and gas industry activities and where necessary engage foreign companies in specific operations. This main objective is supported by seven (7) specific objectives mentioned below and further elaborated under Chapter Three. The specific objectives address issues emanating from the chal-lenges in the oil and gas industry. 2.4.2. Specific Objectives • To develop Tanzania local businesses to become internationally competitive through the empowerment of local suppliers to meet the needs of the oil and gas industry; • To have appropriate technology transferred to Tanzania for managing and operating the oil and gas industry; • To enable local training institutions run requisite curriculum rele-vant for oil and gas industry; • To maximize participation of skilled and unskilled Tanzanians in the oil and gas supply chain and value chain activities; • To enhance value addition and job creation through the use of local businesses. • To have local goods and services procured by oper-ators in accordance with terms and conditions of their operating Licenses; and • To support activities in the oil and gas industry based on gender issues and addressing HIV & AIDS and other infectious diseases;
