Fugro has opened a new, 7000sq m facility in the SONILS Oil Service Centre in Luanda, Angola.

Angola is now the second largest oil producer in Sub-Saharan Africa, after Nigeria, the firm said.

“Our new site demonstrates Fugro’s strong commitment to the Angolan market,” said Christina Brokahne, Managing Director of Fugro Angola.

The new site hosts a double storey administrative building housing offices, conference rooms, a training facility and staff canteen. Attached to the office building is a large warehouse facility of 2500sq m with a 20-ton overhead crane and storage space, as well as workshops for equipment testing and maintenance, a dedicated area for subsea equipment and ROV tooling and a large state-of-the art geotechnical laboratory.
