Arksego Nigeria Limited: All Levels of Security
Arksego Nigeria Limited
Arksego Nigeria Limited has been providing security services to individuals and businesses in Nigeria since 1980. Their principal clients include those in the oil and gas industry, and banking and telecommunications. They provide qualified and experienced personnel for all levels of security and project management, as well as risk and threat analysis, and recommendations for appropriate counter-measures to limit client exposure.
Arksego Nigeria Limited: Electronic Security
Arksego Nigeria Limited has more than three decades of experience in providing state-of-the-art security services to its clients, who come from the oil and gas industry, banking, and telecommunications.
Arksego's Integrated Electronic Security Systems team designs, installs and integrates electronic security and fire equipment at a client's facility, and then provides continuing support services. The ESS systems combine the best features of earlier generation security systems like Closed Circuit television (CCTV), alarm monitoring, access control and asset tracking, into a single system that can be controlled by one user from one workstation, seamlessly bringing these technologies together.
Past systems were usually installed by different vendors and were controlled from separate media. But the systems in use by Arksego Nigeria Limited use the same technologies that are used in computer systems to enable a user to control all of the security system features at the same time and from the same controller.
Any integrated security system needs to be both flexible and scalable, so that it can accommodate the different needs of different clients, and their existing investments in cabling and equipment. And so Arksego security systems are integrated not only so that all systems are operated over a single network, but that no decisions about controls and networking of a single component are made without reference to the others.
Arksego Nigeria Limited consultants say that their ESS solutions are a natural extension of its security services that provide clients with the security that they need for their physical assets and facilities. Arksego offers each of its clients a complete security solution that combines human and electronic systems by one provider, thus ensuring complete management and integration.
Arksego Nigeria Limited: Oil Competition
Arksego Nigeria Limited is steadily evolving into the security company of choice in Nigeria. With its core company values of trust, integrity, and selfless service, they are developing and administering security solutions that go beyond the expectations of its clients.
Those clients are drawn from the telecommunications and banking industries, and from the oil and gas industry, which is centered in the Niger Delta region in the south. Nigeria is the largest oil producer in Africa and holds the largest natural gas reserves on the entire continent. Commercially viable oil was discovered there in 1956, and was centered in the oil-rich Bayesla State. Nigeria became a member of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) more than forty years ago.
But oil production suffers from supply disruptions that have resulted in outages as high as half a million barrels per day. As the consultants at Arksego Nigeria Limited know, the current conflict in the Niger Delta dates to the early 1990s, when tensions between the region's minority ethnic groups and foreign oil corporations rose. The ethnic groups believe that they are being exploited, and the resulting unrest continues to the present day, in spite of a peaceful transition to democracy in Nigeria in 2007.
Competition for oil wealth fueled violence. Arksego Nigeria Limited operates throughout Nigeria, especially in high risk and volatile areas like the Niger Delta. Through their security services, the company's clients are able to operate safely and profitably, and protect their people, assets and reputations.
Arksego Nigeria Limited is owned entirely by Nigerians. Expatriate advisors are sometimes used in order to get the international perspective it requires when dealing with foreign multi-national corporations.
Arksego Nigeria Limited: Armored Vehicles
Arksego Nigeria Limited has provided security services to clients in Nigeria since its founding in 1980. They are proud to be entirely Nigerian owned, although they use the experience of foreign advisors who provide the international perspective it requires in dealing with blue chip, multinational companies.
The company's major clients come from the private sector, in particular the oil and gas industry, banking, and telecommunications. They also provide security services to select government organizations. In addition, Arksego Nigeria Limited sells and services security related products such as body scanners, metal detectors, pepper spray, stun guns, and armored vehicles.
As the professionals at Arksego Nigeria Limited know, nearly any make and model of automobile can be adapted into an armored vehicle. Some vehicles, they say, are limited due to engine horsepower and chassis constraints. The main consideration is that the vehicle be new, or in new-like condition.
The level of armor recommended by the Arksego Nigeria Limited consultants and advisors depends on where the vehicle is going to be used, and the type of security issues that are likely to be associated with its use. For those clients considered high risk, the company usually suggests a professional threat assessment by their trained security experts. As they know, certain areas of Nigeria are considered very high risk, and by some assessments thought of as among the most dangerous areas in the world.
These are very real considerations. The Arksego Nigeria Limited security experts say that it is difficult to protect against .60 caliber bullets when retrofitting a passenger vehicle. Those clients in need of that level of protection are most secure traveling in military-style vehicles that have been modified for passenger use.
