From upstream facilities to gas processing plants, we deliver the control, safety and monitoring systems that keep Nigerian hydrocarbon operations running — safely, compliantly, and continuously.
Nigerian oil & gas operations face a unique combination of challenges: ageing brownfield infrastructure, increasingly complex safety requirements, long supply chains for specialist components, and operational environments where downtime is measured in hundreds of thousands of dollars per hour.
Light Automations delivers the automation, control and safety systems that address this operating reality — engineered to international standards, commissioned under formal HSE frameworks, and supported by an in-country engineering bench that can respond quickly.
Our recent work includes live commissioning at operational facilities of major operators, gas generator integration with Power Management Systems, and multi-vendor control system work across the value chain.
The real constraints our clients bring to us.
SIL-rated safety instrumented systems, HIPPS, and emergency shutdown — engineered and documented to IEC 61511 lifecycle requirements.
Full-facility F&G detection and voting logic, integrated with ESD systems and operator interfaces. Documented cause & effect matrices.
Most oil & gas facilities run mixed-vendor stacks. We integrate across Honeywell, Emerson, Yokogawa, Siemens and Rockwell — with one accountable partner.
When a control system goes down in the Delta, you need an engineer on the ground. Our Ibadan base and field-deployable team keeps response times measured in hours, not days.
Existing DCS or PLC platforms approaching obsolescence need careful migration strategies. We deliver phased transitions that preserve operational continuity.
Full as-built drawings, loop folders, I/O schedules, FAT/SAT reports, and cause & effect matrices — audit-ready for regulator and insurer reviews.
Our full service suite applies to oil & gas, with specific expertise in the following areas.
Design, application development, validation and commissioning of SIL-rated safety systems to IEC 61508/61511 standards. Platforms include Honeywell Safety Manager, Triconex, and ProSafe-RS.
Full-lifecycle engineering on Honeywell Experion PKS, Emerson DeltaV, Yokogawa CENTUM VP, and ABB System 800xA. Brownfield migration assessments and phased execution.
Control system integration for gas-fired generators, interfacing with facility Power Management Systems. Recent work includes live gas generator commissioning for a major operator.
Structured factory and site acceptance testing with documented punch-list closure. Client-witnessed milestones. Full handover packs including operator training.
The OEM ecosystems most commonly deployed in Nigerian oil & gas operations — and the platforms our engineers are certified on.
Light Automations delivers industrial control and automation across multiple priority sectors in Nigeria.
