Looking to hire experienced African oil and gas rig personnel? SPETIV Consulting is the leading supplier of oil and gas drilling and workover rig personnel in Africa. With a database of over 17,000 profiles of some of the most experienced and best trained workers from Africa, we can provide you the manpower you need for that critical drilling or workover job.
PURPOSE OF THE DATABASE
The Africa Database of Drilling and Workover Rig Personnel was created by SPETIV Consulting in January 2020. It is a repository of profiles of all levels of oil and gas professionals with a strong inclination on drilling and workover roles.
Many oil and gas companies do not have a stable drilling department with permanent employees. They consider drilling and workover as timebound projects. Consequently, most workers in this field tend to have fixed-term employment contracts which force them to migrate from one company, country or region to another, depending on where the projects are. This makes it difficult for some companies to get hold of these workers when they need them.
By developing and managing the Africa Database of Drilling and Workover Rig Personnel, SPETIV Consulting can track the best oil and gas technicians and refer them to projects and companies in need.

THE STRENGTH OF OUR PROFILES
We have supplied over 3000 drilling personnel across the globe during the last 7 years, leading to the success of more than 300 drilling and workover operations in Africa, the Middle East and North America. We stand out as a major supplier of competent talent for the following reasons:
Certifications
We screen for personnel that are certified in their area of activities. Drilling and workover operations are extremely risky. Certifications attest that candidates are aware of the risks of their chosen fields and understand how to prevent or mitigate those risks before we put them forward for consideration by our client companies.
Safety Training
We ensure that the profiles we submit to our clients are of professionals who have received in-depth training in health and safety. Those to be considered for offshore work must be in possession of a valid Sea Survival, BOSIET or HUET certification in addition to IMIST which is also a requirement for onshore industry workers. Oil and gas is one of the most hazardous industries in the world. Consequently, safety is a priority in this sector, which explains why the industry is also one of the safest.
Induction
We understand that to perform well and safely, one needs to be mentally, emotionally and physically prepared for the job one is being considered for. Consequently, we provide in-depth induction to all our clients ahead of their deployment to the field, ensuring that they know exactly what is expected of them.
Background checks
Besides being hazard prone, oil and gas industries are also capital intensive. Company managers must therefore have full trust in the personnel they work with. SPETIV Consulting is fully aware of this, which is why we conduct in-depth background checks on all the profiles that we submit to our client companies for their consideration. We verify their academic records, doublecheck their employment history, reference check their performance behavior as well as their criminal record. We will not propose a resource to you if we are not reasonably convinced that they are as clean as a whistle.
Pre-employment medicals
We conduct pre-employment medical tests on all candidates that are retained by our client companies before they are mobilized, ensuring that they are medically fit for the assignments awaiting them.
