The Invitation

A Seat at the Supplier Engagement Table

BKI was invited to the Q3 Supplier Engagement Workshop hosted by Sinopec and McDermott, in partnership with the Petroleum Authority of Uganda — bringing together contractors, suppliers and technical teams shaping Uganda's upstream oil and gas programme.

The theme set the agenda: "Driving First Oil Together — Enhancing Ugandan Capability, Compliance, and CPF Execution." For BKI, it was a chance to stand alongside the operators and EPC contractors we support, and hear directly what First Oil readiness demands of Uganda's supply chain.

Beyond The Agenda

Relationships Built Between Sessions

Some of the most valuable exchanges happened away from the podium — in the corridor conversations, the coffee-break introductions, and the quiet moments between agenda items.

For BKI, that's the point of being in the room: understanding first-hand what Sinopec, McDermott and the wider EPC ecosystem need from Uganda's suppliers — and where BKI's advisory, digital and delivery support fits into that picture.
