Markets
Nigeria and West Africa
Equipment sourcing for indigenous and independent operators, planned around the conditions your equipment will actually face.
Why this market
A growing need for the right equipment
Indigenous operators now hold a large share of Nigeria's production. Workover, reactivation and marginal field activity are growing, and each of these programs needs rigs, barges, production facilities and well equipment that suit local conditions.
Much of that equipment is sourced from abroad. Getting the specification right before it ships is what keeps a program on schedule.
