The award was conferred on
INTELS at a ceremony organised to mark NIPR Rivers State branch’s 2017 Annual

The award was presented to

of the occasion.
Head, Government and
Public Relations, David Alagoa, who received the award on behalf of the
company, said INTELS Nigeria Limited would continue to support community
empowerment and development programmes.
He said the company’s
integrated participatory approach (IPA) identifies integration, participation,
communication, interaction, and dialogue as important elements of its community
relations development plan.
According to Alagoa,
INTELS prides itself on delivering top-notch logistics services to the oil and
gas industry and on maintaining mutually beneficial relationships with its host
communities.
He said this approach has
earned the company several commendations and awards from reputable Nigerian and
international organisations.
Expatiating on this while
speaking with journalists on the sidelines of the NIPR conference, Alagoa said
INTELS has received no fewer than 200 letters of commendation and awards from
lawmakers, government agencies, traditional rulers, community leaders,
professional bodies and corporate organisations including international oil
companies.
Alagoa said INTELS has
been actively involved in supporting various sporting activities, building
roads, providing medical services, drainages, street lights, ultra-modern
markets, modern classroom blocks, free health services; ICT centres; town halls
and community centres; skill acquisition centres; public toilets; civic
centres; and renovated the palaces of traditional rulers in the Niger Delta
region.
“We also empower indigenes
of the communities through initiatives like our Women Empowerment Programme
Scheme Synergy (WEPSS),” he said.
INTELS is leading the
Nigerian Oil and Gas logistics support industry as a core logistics service
provider through its skill, efficiency, integrity and quality of service.
The organisation has 30
years of experience in ports management and terminal logistics support services
in shore bases across Nigeria, applying the “One Stop Shop” solution under its
