Following successful projects in Qatar and Spain over the last few years, we are currently installing two bitumen storage facilities in Angola. The equipment for these facilities were manufactured at our workshops and were shipped just before christmas 2008. We are due to reach completion in June 2009. A new ongoing contract to supply control panels to a London based company for the control of generator systems has been running for six months now with an average of 20-40 control panels per month.
Our workforce has grown to eight with new members of staff in both the control and fabrication and welding sides of the business. New projects in the pipeline include containerised ship to shore loading stations for Africa as well as all of our local ongoing maintenance and engineering support work.
