Kahuna Workforce Solutions, the leading provider of skills and competency management software, has formed a strategic partnership with Norwegian operating services provider PXO AS to accelerate workforce competency in Norway’s booming energy sector, which is a significant stabilizer of the world’s oil and gas supply, particularly in meeting European demand.

The partnership specifically aims to improve operations readiness and assurance by combining Kahuna’s dynamic, digitized competency management platform with PXO’s extensive technical and field experience in a variety of operating production facilities offshore and onshore.
“PXO represents everything we look for in a partner as we strive to ensure successful and rapid adoption of competency-based training and development programs,” said Jai Shah, CEO of Kahuna Workforce Solutions. “As a company that works with many of the same customers as PXO, we’ve seen their expertise firsthand.
