This paper was motivated by the question of how collaboration between foreign and indigenous oil and gas (O&G) companies can support small and mediumsized indigenous technological development. A three-stage qualitative–interpretive method based on interviews with industry experts has been adopted in order to build three case studies. The main contribution of this paper is the development of a model that explains how different actors can cocreate value in the ecosystem of public–private partnership (PPP) in the O&G industry through digital technologies. This paper proposes what companies and the government could do to increase the competitiveness of the local economy, diversify from O&G into high technological industries, and support industrial development through information and communication technologies (ICT).
