Resumo(s)
O setor de petróleo e gás em Moçambique tem atraído investimentos consideráveis de MNCs que são acompanhados por programas de fortalecimento de capacidades voltados às PMEs locais, no âmbito do conteúdo local. Este estudo exploratório analisa a capacidade das PMEs locais de absorverem e beneficiarem destes programas e de se integrarem na cadeia de valor do setor para compreender em que medida essas iniciativas promovem a preparação e a inserção efetiva das PMEs nas cadeias globais de valor.
A investigação envolveu uma amostra de 47 PMEs locais, das quais 23 empresas beneficiárias dos programas de MNCs e 24 não beneficiárias. Para a recolha de dados e com recurso à escala de Likert foi utilizado um questionário estruturado, elaborado e partilhado na plataforma Google Forms, destinado a captar perceções qualitativas das PMEs sobre suas capacidades de absorção, recursos internos, ambiente externo e sobre os efeitos dos programas de fortalecimento de capacidades das MNCs na integração da cadeia de valor do setor.
Os resultados evidenciam que os programas de fortalecimento de capacidades promovidos pelas MNCs contribuem para a preparação das PMEs locais e reforço das suas competências, mas são insuficientes, por si só, para assegurar a sua integração efetiva na cadeia de valor do setor de petróleo e gás em Moçambique. Esta integração requer intervenções complementares e depende da existência de outros fatores, nomeadamente, a capacidades de absorção e recursos internos que variam entre as PMEs, e de um ambiente de negócios favorável, incluindo políticas publicas adequadas. O estudo recomenda a implementação de uma política integrada de Conteúdo Local com fiscalização adequada, e a melhoria do ambiente de negócios.
The oil and gas sector in Mozambique has attracted considerable investments from multinational corporations (MNCs), accompanied by capacity-building programs targeting local SMEs within the framework of local content policies. This exploratory study analyzes the ability of local SMEs to absorb and benefit from these programs and to integrate into the sector’s value chain, aiming to understand to what extent these initiatives promote the preparation and effective insertion of SMEs into global value chains. The research involved a sample of 47 local SMEs, of which 23 were beneficiaries of MNC programs and 24 were non-beneficiaries. Data was collected using a structured questionnaire, shared via the Google Forms platform and employing a Likert scale, aimed at capturing qualitative perceptions of SMEs regarding their absorptive capacities, internal resources, external environment, and the effects of MNC capacity-building programs on value chain integration in the sector. The results indicate that the capacity-building programs promoted by MNCs contribute to the preparation of local SMEs and the strengthening of their capabilities but are insufficient on their own to ensure effective integration into the oil and gas sector’s value chain in Mozambique. Such integration requires complementary interventions and depends on other factors, namely the absorptive capacities and internal resources that vary among SMEs, as well as a favorable business environment, including adequate public policies. The study recommends the implementation of an integrated local content policy with proper monitoring and the improvement of the business environment.
