He noted PetroVietnam has made great strides over the last 40 years, mastering techniques of oil and gas exploration, exploitation, and processing with its presence domestically and in other countries. 
Its attainments have substantially contributed to national socio-economic development and sovereignty protection, he added. 
The President urged the group to continue modernising technology and build on its momentum to maintain its standing in the national economy, adding that more attention should be paid to improving employee livelihoods. 
Restructuring the group and its affiliates is also crucial in promoting key projects and contributing to the national economy, he said.
