COMPANY OVERVIEW
Point Engineering Limited (POINT) is an independent and wholly (100%) Nigerian engineering Consultancy Company dedicated to providing responsive high quality and cost-effective services to clients, who are mainly in the oil and gas production, gas processing and oil refining industries.

Since then, the company has evolved into a full multi-disciplinary consultancy group working on contracts.

Our philosophy is to provide innovative, cost effective solutions, on time, within budget and develop a relationship with our clients for mutual respect, whereby our professional approach places us first on the list when considering new tasks or technologies.

We undertake a wide range of Engineering and Project management ...
... tasks for oil exploration and production facilities, gas production and processing facilities, separation, liquefaction and oil refining.

Projects executed include study, analysis, engineering (front-end and detailed), procurement assistance and project management services. We have worked and can still work under a number of contractual arrangements including Reimbursable, Target Price, Lump Sum, Service and Frame Contracts depending on the nature of the project assignment and clients' preference.
