Petroleum Upstream Regulatory Authority (PURA) staff have been urged to work extremely diligent for productive oil and natural gas sub-sector.

The call was made by the Chairman of the Authority’s Workers Council, Engineer Charles Sangweni during the council’s fourth meeting held in Morogoro Region recently.

"We have a great responsibility to ensure that the petroleum upstream operations become a catalyst of development to the entire oil and natural gas value chain; and our performance as employees is a key component to attain this," he explained.
