Oil & Gas Support Services

There are vast known oil and gas reserves in West Africa and prospecting is expected to uncover further quantities for many years. Extraction of these valuable resources requires a wide range of specialized equipment and operating skills. As an extension of the company's core activities, PW provides marine based services to the oil industry - working offshore, onshore, in marshes, swamps, lagoons or on dry land.

The pride of our marine fleet is the 'Saint Patrick'- Dynamically Positioned barge, a shallow drafted, precisely manoeuverable vessel that excels where deployment of anchors presents a hazard. 'Saint Patrick' has separate positioning thrusters at each corner, enabling an on-board computer to control the position of the vessel by referencing satellite GPS signals.
