Raising the Bar for HSE in Oilfield Operations
At Senior Wells Nigeria Limited, our commitment to Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) is not just a regulatory obligation—it is a core value that defines how we operate across all projects, both onshore and offshore.
We recognize that oilfield operations are inherently high-risk, and that’s why we maintain the highest HSE standards to protect our people, preserve the environment, and deliver operational excellence.
“Our responsibility is not only to install and maintain well heads—but to ensure that every action we take leaves a positive footprint for the next generation.”
— Senior Wells Nigeria Limited
