The company’s infrastructure has since grown to include open yards for pipe laydowns, chemical and hazmat storage, and overhead cranes for repair and refurbishment. This infrastructure now covers around half a million square meters, largely clustered in two dedicated hubs to the north and south. These hubs provide, comprehensive logistics for oil and gas projects, emphasizing the company has been careful in driving cost efficiency by building close to source, and implementing new technology such as real-time consignment tracking. GWC have an impeccable record when it comes to safety, something the company considers to be paramount to the success of its delivery.
