Bredero Shaw (Nigeria) Ltd. has played a major role in the provision of pipeline
coatings for gas and oil projects in West Africa for over twenty years from facilities
located in Onne and Warri, Nigeria. Due to the increasing demand for anti-corrosion
and concrete weight coatings for offshore, swamp and land pipeline projects, the
company is moving forward with the installation of a new Bredero Shaw coating
facility to be located at the Onne Oil and Gas Free Zone in Nigeria. This facility, which
is part of Bredero Shaws overall plan to serve the growing West African market, will
expand capacity for anti-corrosion and concrete weight coatings for pipeline projects
in Nigeria and other nearby markets.
