The Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF) says it will soon start sending drilling engineers for training at the French Institute of Petroleum in France.
Mr Kalu Otisi, PTDF, Head of Media, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja on Monday that the training was part of Federal Government’s plan to boost daily oil production.
He said the four-month programme, which will start in August, would enable qualified Nigerians to acquire the right training and certification to operate in the Nigerian Oil and Gas sector.
“Currently, Nigerians do not have the right training and certification to operate in the oil and gas industry which is very critical.
