Why Sector Important To Oil And Gas Innovation Ecosystem

This sector is the loci of both fundamental and applied research of a nature (time frame, duration, tenor) not normally undertaken by industry. It provides highly qualified personnel for industry and it can serve as a resource to address specific problems or issues affecting specific industry projects.
