The West Africa offshore oil and gas extraction market has remained resilient despite recent volatile global oil prices that led to temporal scaling down of some upstream exploration and production projects by some international exploration and production companies.This resilience of the region's offshore market sustained the performance of the offshore equipment and infrastructure supply market credited for the increase in the demand for quality marine paints and coatings to protect against corrosion,provide a nonslip-surface,and improve the assets’aesthetic qualities.As the global oil prices recover,West Africa continues to experience an increase in oil and gas exploration,production and storage equipment and infrastructure,a large share made of steel that is being installed in extremely harsh deepwater environments.This has raised the demand for corrosion protection paints and coatings such as poly-urethanes,acrylic,polyesters,epoxy and alkyd for maximum performance of the installations.
