Oil prices have rallied from the bleak pandemic period, but the recovery is not even across the industry, with many in the oil & gas services and equipment sector (OGSE) struggling to stay afloat.

We ask Sharifah Zaida Nurlisha of the Malaysia Oil & Gas Services Council (MOGSC) on what the OGSE sector needs.
