UTComp announces licensing agreement with Nigeria’s Blaqskye International

October 17, 2023

UTComp is pleased to welcome Blaqskye International to our growing network of UltraAnalytix® NDT licensees.

Based in Lagos, Nigeria, BlaqSkye provides engineering and technical support, project management, asset management and inspection services to clients in the energy and manufacturing sectors, particularly oil and gas producers.

“We’re proud to announce that Blaqskye has joined the UTComp family as our second licensee in Africa,” said UTComp CEO Jo Anne Watton. “Blaqskye has been providing innovative, collaborative solutions for many years. We look forward to working together to bring our UltraAnalytix inspection technology to Blaqskye’s customers, and to benefitting from their unique insights and understanding of the African infrastructure and energy landscapes.”

The agreement expands the reach of UTComp’s global network of licensees trained to use the UltraAnalytix inspection system, a non-destructive and non-intrusive method for reliability testing of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) tanks, pipes and other industrial assets. UltraAnalytix NDT provides clients with a fast, accurate, safe and cost-effective way to assess corrosion and test the strength and condition of FRP assets to prevent catastrophic failures that endanger public safety and the environment.

Working with UTComp will help Blaqskye continue its leadership in asset management and asset integrity services, said Kenechi Ojemeni, Blaqskye’s Technical Director.

“Nigeria is Africa’s largest economy and one of the world’s leading producers of oil and gas, so this collaboration with UTComp opens up many exciting opportunities, not just for our companies but for FRP asset owners in many sectors throughout West Africa,” he said.
