Integration of the Value Chain in O&G

During today's afternoon, an important meeting took place at the headquarters of the Ministry of Industry where several officials of the national government explained the plans to develop a competitive national industry capable of supplying our local Oil & Gas sector with the products that will be required to meet the challenges that will be found in the time ahead.

This meeting was chaired by the Minister of Industry Lic. Debora Giorgi and by the Secretary of Interior Commerce Mr Guillermo Moreno. The representation of the Ministry of Planning was trusted to Mr Roberto Baratta.

Among the people present there were important leaders of the O&G companies that operate in the country, senior managers of Engineering and Construction firms and many businessmen that belong to the companies that integrate the local chain of value of the Oil & Gas sector.

During her speech, the Minister Giorgi said very clearly that the final target is to develop an industry that could be highly competitive, with an important technological level and well beyond the classic "overall and worker's food supplier" model.

After that, the Secretary Guillermo Moreno explained that the function of his office was to work as facilitator between the O&G companies and the supplier industry provided that this could meet the challenges and by no means only repeat the "we want to be..." song.

The representatives of Controles Argentinos SRL, that were specially invited, followed the presentations with deep interest in the knowledge that this kind of initiative can create a strong national industry, promote the general wellbeing and most of all enable the foundations to support the technological and industrial development that is fundamental to develop the huge conventional and non-conventional resources available in Argentina.

Our company expresses its firm will to actively participate in all the three party meetings (O&G + Suppliers + Government) that will take place with the certitude that this is a valid road in order to develop products and services that could be of convenience to all the involved parts.

It is very important to point out, that for more than 30 years Conar has been manufacturing locally high technology electronic measurement & control instrumentation that is widely used by almost all the O&G companies that operate in our country, and that this activity was always in direct competence with the multinational firms present in our market.

We achieved this with a very simple recipe: Good design, outstanding execution quality and a permanent willingness to listen to our customers.
