PROJECT
STATUS:
On-going
The Company:
Nigerdock Nigeria plc was inaugurated in 1986 as a
public enterprise. It commenced business with mere
ship repairs from where many years of experience
were acquired on steel fabrications and steel works.
This has led the company to venture into offshore
construction for oil and gas industry. The continued
demand for oil and gas and the push for “local
content” make the involvement of Nigerdock a truly
Nigerian imperative. Presently Nigerdock’s business
is focused on four core areas.
Location:
The
site is located on Snake Island, Lagos, in a free
trade zone on the southern side of Tincan Island,
across the Badagry Creek. |
