Tell us your approach towards change

The Oil & Gas industry is always in a state of transition. The fluctuation in oil prices, structural shifts in demand and supply trends, the evolving regulations on sulphur cap in fuels, the possible repeal of the crude export ban in the US are just some of the numerous industry trends that add risk to this sector. SAGA strives to constantly upgrade and customize its solutions to exceed the expectation of most demanding clients.

The strategy employed to deal with change is to have a multi-disciplinary team led by industry stalwarts/specialists together with supported from young team members. The specialists share their best practices in the petroleum industry and ensure that young staff is suitably groomed. This approach helps young staff develop skills, knowledge and attitude to deal with management and technological challenges.
