With the commencement of oil exploration here in Guyana, the University of Guyana (UG) will be tasked with introducing programmes that can prepare locals to delve into this arena. Moreover, a recently established UGExxonMobil’s Deepwater Champion has started its exploration works offshore Guyana for oil.Transformational Task Force will have to give keen attention to such an undertaking.This is according to UG Chancellor, Professor Nigel Harris, who at a press conference yesterday said, “We had better be in a position to address that particular need because in truth I can say,Cheap Jerseys From China, with the little I know, that the exploration, the ExxonMobil company, has already approached the University…in terms of the University being able to prepare the sort of people they need.”And according to Professor Harris,Cheap Jerseys Wholesale, “we had better be able whether or not there are programmes now or programmes to be.”“I think already there are some programmes (or) they are in the pipelines,” added the Chancellor.He pointed out that the University’s role in this regard is imperative since it would be extremely expensive for companies such as ExxonMobil to bring their own people to meet their exploratory needs.“So this indeed I expect out of that Task Force (this) will be one of the key areas that will be identified in terms of meeting a human resource need,” said Professor Harris.But according to him, there may be in some instances that UG may not have the requisite staff to meet the programme needs. As such he considered that moves will have to be made by the local university to link with international tertiary institutions.“I am going to obviously be pushing to a great degree with the University of the West Indies which I have been connected most recently. They have trained petroleum engineers, people for the petroleum industry for the last maybe four decades and it doesn’t make sense if we have next door neighbours with that ability that we don’t link with them,” said Professor Harris.
