The services include well drilling where Kenya sees the opportunity to supply drilling fluids & chemicals, cementing, drilling tools, completion equipment, OCTG among others.
 
Also on focus is attracting companies that can provide operation & maintenance services that can provide production chemicals, materials, painting, offshore infrastructure maintenance, etc
 
To make the Regional Oil & Gas Maintenance &Service Hub a reality the idea is to establish special economic zones in Mombasa, Lamu and Kisumu where such companies can set up base while enjoying various tax and other levy reprieves.
 
Sumayya adds that the country will also provide room for setting up of a shipyard, Dry-Docking Facilities and Facility to service offshore marine vessels so as to make both Mombasa and Lamu the destination of choice for companies operating off the East African coast.
 
An oil & gas contractors and suppliers base is also targeted mainly dedicated for Local Demand.
