据路透社1月8日报道称，卡塔尔石油公司宣布将启动能源行业服务和产业本地化项目 “TAWTEEN” - 一项旨在加强该行业供应链本地化和扩大中小企业基础的举措。

该项目将于2019年2月18日启动，届时将有众多官方机构和实体，能源行业公司以及各类服务提供商和配套行业参与。

TAWTEEN计划旨在增强能源行业供应链的弹性。它还旨在在能源行业内创造约100个新的投资机会，以保持卡塔尔国的经济价值，进而每年将增加80亿的进口替代品，预计还将创造超过5000个新白领工作。此外，作为TAWTEEN供应商开发计划的一部分，通过提供技术支持，它将为卡塔尔的本地和国际企业家，或计划在卡塔尔开展业务的企业提供宝贵的商业机会，并创造一个参与该行业供应链和创造高质量的就业机会的环境。

TAWTEEN最重要的一个方面是引入国内价值（ICV）政策，旨在奖励通过最大化本地内容来执行合同和协议的供应商和承包商。作为卡塔尔本地化工作的重要支柱，ICV将融入商业运作的方式，并将制定商业规则和要求。

Qatar Petroleum to launch the Localization Program for Services and Industries in the energy sector

Qatar Petroleum has announced that it will launch the Localization Program for Services and Industries in the Energy Sector “TAWTEEN” – an initiative to enhance localizing the sector’s supply chain and expand the small and medium enterprises base.

The program will be launched on 18 February 2019, with the large participation of official bodies and entities, energy sector companies, and a wide spectrum of service providers and supporting industries.

TAWTEEN Program is designed to enhance the resilience of Energy Sector’s supply chain. It also aims at creating around 100 new investment opportunities within the energy sector in order to retain economic value within the State of Qatar, which in turn is expected to add QAR 8 Billion of import substitutes annually and is also expected create more than 5000 new white collar jobs. Moreover, it will provide valuable business opportunities for local and international entrepreneurs in Qatar, or those planning to set up business in Qatar, by providing technical support as part of TAWTEEN supplier development programs, and create an environment to participate in the sector’s supply chain and generate high-quality job opportunities.

One of TAWTEEN’s most important aspects is introducing In-country Value (ICV) policy, which is designed to reward suppliers and contractors who execute their contracts and agreements by maximizing local content. An essential pillar of Qatar’s localization efforts, ICV will integrate into the way business is conducted, and will set forth the rules and requirements of doing business.
