Located in Lagos, Geoplex describes itself as Africa’s fastest growing indigenous service company. Providing integrated oilfield services, it now operates across the West African coastal region, as well as Kenya, Uganda and Mozambique.

Geoplex divides its services into six service lines:

  • Drilling and engineering:Advanced drilling services; engineering, including fabrication, maintenance, inspection, testing and certification services; drilling and workover rigs, including the delivery and management of upstream services such as well testing and completion, supported by technology partnerships that enhance field development efficiency
  • Electric, wireline, slickline and well testing: Electric wireline services, slickline services, well-testing services and the provision of early production facilities

It owns and operates all its rigs and equipment, enabling cost flexibility, rapid redeployment and turnkey delivery. The company’s strong financial position supports continued investment in advanced technologies. Geoplex has also expanded into shallow-water oil production, further broadening its operational scope.

The future for Geoplex includes power generation projects in addition to its full range of oilfield services. With this strong and wide-ranging foundation, Geoplex aims to provide high-quality services at the highest safety and environmental standards.
