Global business software firm SAP is exploring opportunities to expand the use of its products in the oil and gas sector in West Africa.

This is according to Tracy Bolton, head of the partner team for SAP Africa.

“From our next partner activity, we are having enablement training in Cote d'Ivoire and Cameroon … and oil and gas industry training in Nigeria this week.

"We will continue to hold enablement throughout the year with partner forums quarterly and then a large partner awards event once a year with the next one being in March,” she said.
