Our marine story

From Lekki Deep Sea Port to the energy corridor

Marine reclamation and construction activity — and demand for waterfront property — have grown rapidly along the Lagos coast.

To meet the need for dedicated, economical transport and marine construction vessels, Bolpex entered into strategic alliances with several marine vessel owners. This equipment has helped us secure key marine projects, and we continue to support work in the Dangote Lekki energy corridor and offshore areas.
