Decom Engineering is making significant strides in Africa’s offshore energy sector, with a major new project set to launch offshore Nigeria. This expansion marks a pivotal moment for the subsea cutting specialist, as it cements its role in tackling some of the continent’s most complex oil and gas infrastructure challenges.
The Nigerian project will involve advanced tender cutting and flexible riser cutting scopes, demonstrating Decom’s capacity to handle intricate decommissioning and maintenance operations in challenging offshore environments. The company’s deployment of innovative technologies — particularly its lightweight and neutrally buoyant chopsaws — is positioning it as a leading solution provider in regions where precision, sustainability, and operational reliability are paramount.
Decom’s Commercial Director, Nick McNally, emphasized that the company’s international growth, including into key African markets, is driven by a focus on understanding client needs and creating tailored solutions. “Contract wins to date in the Americas, Africa, and our own North Sea backyard, as well as in western Australia, are continuing to build on a strong track record of successfully completing challenging projects in the world’s major oil and gas regions,” McNally said.
By expanding into Nigeria, Decom Engineering not only broadens its geographical footprint but also strengthens Africa’s ability to manage and develop critical offshore oil and gas assets. The company’s investments in research and development continue to push the boundaries of subsea engineering, offering Africa’s energy sector a new edge in infrastructure management and decommissioning expertise.
