GREEN INDUSTRY ISSUES
• Products made with strict acknowledgement of the ecological
limit of environment:
 Clean energy consumptions
 Green operations will result in increased focus on Energy
efficiency,
 Efficient Waste management and Sustainability
 Implies focus towards innovation
GREEN ECONOMY
Green economy affects skills due to the fact that:
• The Green economy will result in change in skill profile of staff.
• New technology needs new skills.
• Skill development and adaption
• Skills set change
BIOFUELS ROLL-OUT
• Mandatory blending of biofuels with petrol and diesel:1
October 2015
• Job creation potential :Stimulation of rural economy
• Mabele Project:
Sugar cane:bioethanol
sunflower:diesel
Will require research support
– Potential employment agriculture
SKILLS IMPACT GREEN ECONOMY
Green economy will have impact on jobs hence skills project:
• Dialogue is happening first at employer level to look at needs and
identify gaps
• Next focus will be training providers to close any identified gaps to
ensure training offer meets needs of the green economy
- New curricula ,funding models to address needs
- Integrated approach
SOME KEY QUESTIONS
• How does the ‘Green economy” affect the
Petroleum Sector?
• What impact is it likely to have on future industry developments?
• What implication is it expected to have on the
skills requirements.
• What new jobs / research streams will result from Green Jobs?
DRIVERS OF NEW SKILLS
DEVELOPMENT AGENDA

CONSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENTS AND
KING 3
•
•
-
Section 24 (c): Guarantee for a Safe and Health environment
OSHACT +Regulations
Environmental Regulations
King III Corporate Reporting.
Apart from financial performance what are we doing to the
environment
- Goal; is to ensure resources are used sustainably
IMPLICATIONS OF CONSTITUTIONAL
REQUIREMENTS
- NEED TO REDUCE POLLUTION
- SUSTAINABLE USE OF RESOURCES
- TRANSFORMATION OF INDUSTRY
- EFFECTIVE HSSE PROGAMS
- EQUIPMENT INTEGRITY RELIABILITY MONITORING
- PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE
SAPIA ‘S OBJECTIVES
• Deploy staff who are able to operate and maintain equipment in
our operations to guarantee a safe and health environment
• Deploy staff who are able to re-engineer process operations for
better utilisation of energy
• Introduce innovative techniques to ensure sustainability of
resources
• Provide support employment in Biofuels sector by initiatives such
as supplier development.
NEW DEVELOPMENTS
• E&P in Upstream in South Africa.
- Need for Research and New professional skills. Need to refocus
research thrust in universities: support black researchers
• E&P East and West Africa: potential skills flight
• Potential Production Stage :maintenance, operations and
reliability
- Thousands of technical skills required at all levels (engineering
,projects, HSSE)
IMPLICATIONS FOR DOWNSTREAM
• The drive towards the Green Economy implies changes in the way
some process operate
- Equipment condition monitoring
- Energy re-use
- Reskilling technical staff
• Overlap of staff needs with Upstream implies a serious staff
shortage in future
HOW IS INDUSTRY DOING
• Audit technical skills capacity in member companies based on past
research.
-
What are the current capacities?
What are the uptakes for technical staff at all levels?
What gaps are identified in training?
Are there any unique requirements?
TRAINING INSTITUTES
,
• Engage training providers at all levels based on employer
requirements
- What content is on offer and how can it be optimised to meet the
needs of green economy?
- What research streams can we create to meet the needs of both
upstream and downstream?
- How can faculty be capacitated to better deliver what industry
needs?
• Re-design training systems around needs
EXPERIENCE FROM BRIC MEMBER
• Bulk of technical training managed by private companies and
employer association
- Faster response to changing needs of employer
- Stronger association ensures relevant curricular
- Easier articulation with professional association
POSSIBLE RESPONSE
• Industry to support and participate in focused research activity
which support operations
- Financial support essential to attract researchers
- Support for new program roll-out by offering practical work
- Open doors for academics to conduct company research and
practical training
POSSIBLE RESPONSE
Industry to support and participate in focused research activity
which support industry
- Financial support essential to attract black researchers
- Support for new program roll-out
- Open doors for academics to conduct company research
and practical training
POSSIBLE RESPONSE
- Increase Graduate intakes. Engage ECSA to access skills of retired
technical staff to support new graduates(340000 unemployed vs
470000 vacancies)
- Share information with other sectors to address undersupply or
oversupply
– Articulation : Dealing with Graduation rates
-1 in 4 students graduates within timelines.
– Industrial advisory committees at all levels of learning
institutes. Research support
– Central graduate database
POSSIBLE RESPONSE
• Mandatory professional institute involvement in post-university
training
• Efficient sharing of undersupply and oversupply
• New funding model for skills development
• Development of skills development framework
