As a young man in school, I had worked under my father who was at the time a dealer with the then Texaco. He was a boy scout kind of man who was known for his being straightforward, trustworthy and without guile in his dealings. I sometimes functioned as a sales attendant, at other times as director of operations, so I grew up having a liking for oil and gas with dreams of floating an oil company after school.
In 2000 and 2001, I conceived the idea of Dobes Oil Ltd, I birthed it and incorporated it, after all, “A dream becomes a goal when action is taken toward its achievement.”
We came into full operations downstream with the motto: Keeping the ancient landmark; that is, growing, building and developing from what my father was and what he had done and do beyond, supplying the end users of petroleum products with clean, trustworthy products and services, moving upstream and diversifying into exploration and marginal fields.
