Ferryl is pleased to announce that as of September 2014 stock of Ferryl products is available in West Africa in Nigeria.

Just Anti-Corrosive Vendors Limited, established by Mr. Steve Onumaegbu, has been formed to import, stock and supply Ferryl's Anticorrosive Products to international vessels calling West African ports as well as servicing the offshore oil and gas industry in the region.

The first shipment to Nigeria from Ferryl's factory and warehouses in Germany is now safely in Mr. Onumaegbu's care. As with all of Ferryl's agents, Just Anti-corrosive Vendors Ltd. was carefully chosen to represent Ferryl in Nigeria. Ferryl stands for high performance products but also for a high level of service, competence and care. These are values shared by Mr. Onumaegbu and his team.

By no means new to the industry, Mr. Onumaegbu has a wealth of experience in the maritime sector. Having worked in high positions in ship supply, logistics and offshore platform supply, he is able to meet the needs of his customers and overcome any difficulties of supply in the region. Apapa, the major port of the city of Lagos, is home to a major container terminal, whereas Ro-Ro facilities are found in the adjacent port of Tin Can Island.

Nigerian LNG vessels transporting gas from the region to destinations in Europe and East Asia are some of Ferryl's existing loyal customers. Managers of these vessels can now take supply of Ferryl 202 Standard Anticorrosive Grease, used for the vessels' mooring wires, from local stock in their home ports in Nigeria.

Why Ferryl?

The local offshore industry in Nigeria is ideally suited for Ferryl's products. Not only are offshore installations in the Niger Delta Region exposed to the marine environment, but the hot climate also puts high demands on products to perform.

In a technologically advanced industry where the smooth operation of equipment is crucial, Ferryl 202 Standard Anticorrosive Grease improves performance, safety and appearance. Downtime is expensive and wires need to operate reliably and safely.

Being specially designed for the marine environment, Ferryl 202 Standard is highly resistant to sea-water. Rubberised binders ensure excellent adhesion in bad weather. A high melting point ensures that the grease stays on the wire.

This reduces grease consumption, extends the lifetime of wires and equipment and reduces amount of lubricant lost into the environment.

Ferryl is excited to welcome Just Anti-Corrosive Vendors to the global team of Ferryl agents and is pleased to be able to offer their customers supply in new ports in Nigeria.
