ince 2010, Maventeq Systems has provided Project Support & Technical Assistance Services — specialist manpower supply — to TotalEnergies’ Nigerian operations. What began as a single staffing engagement has grown into one of our longest-running client relationships, sustained for more than a decade under a renewed framework agreement.

“A staffing partner is only as good as its worst hire. In an operating environment where a single unqualified technician can shut down a production line, understanding that risk is not optional — it is the job.”

Why an International Major Trusted a Local Partner

Maventeq co-founder Ejike Oguh brings more than two decades of experience from multinational oil and gas operators, including Shell and TotalEnergies, spanning project controls, cost management, lean operations, and risk management. That operating background — not a sales pitch — is why TotalEnergies could hand Maventeq a function as sensitive as workforce supply and trust it would be run the way the operator itself would run it.

What the Engagement Covers

  • Recruitment and vetting of technical and support personnel against TotalEnergies’ role specifications
  • Full manpower administration, including contracts, statutory compliance, and payroll
  • Project Support & Technical Assistance staff embedded directly within TotalEnergies’ operations
  • Continuous scaling and replacement as project phases and headcount needs change

Compliance Is the Foundation, Not an Afterthought

Maventeq holds a NUPRC permit to operate as an oil industry service company for Nigerian manpower supply, and our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001:2015 — a certification whose scope explicitly covers manpower supply services. For a regulated, audit-sensitive function like workforce supply to an international operator, that combination of certification and hands-on industry experience is what keeps the relationship running year after year.

The TotalEnergies engagement is one of several long-running human capital partnerships we run for operators in Nigeria’s energy sector.
