About SILS

Senegal Integrated Logistics Services SA — a 100% Senegalese company serving the oil and gas industry from Hann Bel Air, Dakar, since 2020.

WHO WE ARE

A Senegalese Company On Senegal's Oil Corridor

SILS SA was incorporated in Dakar on 14 January 2020 as a 100% Senegalese Société Anonyme. From a 45,000 m² base on Route des Hydrocarbures — a former Shell / VIVO fuel storage depot — we provide warehousing, laydown, materials handling, industrial services and technical manpower to the oil and gas industry.

Five client facilities have operated on the base since 2021, through exploration and into the operational phase. We fund and build client facilities ourselves, so clients carry no construction capital expenditure, and we own our handling and transport fleet rather than brokering capacity.

The company is classified under Senegal's national local content law and registered on the CNSCL e-platform. Investment decisions are taken in Dakar by its own management and shareholders.
