Six capabilities that follow the cargo end to end.

WPSL assists government agencies on revenue drives by ensuring the correct methodology is adopted in assessing both quantity and quality — and reported accurately — boosting national revenue through careful classification, valuation and risk management.

• Quantity & quality assessment at point of export
• Classification and customs valuation support
• Risk-managed reporting back to the mandating agency

We research, design and implement cutting-edge infrastructure, and help government agencies re-engineer complex operational processes with the right technology. If the constraint has a physical solution, delivering it cost-effectively is our job.

• Enterprise risk-management software solutions
• High-resolution X-ray cargo scanners for risk detection
• Cloud-enabled servers, terminals, 4G networks, security & monitoring systems

We work closely with governments to protect their interests around verification of quantity — as technical partner to Specialist Inspection Service Limited on Sierra Leone’s Export Supervision Scheme, and alongside Global Inspection Services on Nigeria’s pre-shipment inspection of crude oil and gas exports.

• Confirming every bill of lading reflects quantity actually shipped
• Quality verification where quality bears on pricing
• Fiscal auditing by qualified chartered accountants
• Pipeline, point-of-export and custodial transfer monitoring

Bespoke inspection tailored to each client, covering dry and wet cargoes, crude oil and refined products — plus terminal audits, loss-control investigation and tank cleaning. We conduct independent qualitative and quantitative analysis on vessel and on the exporter’s storage tanks.

• Crude oil & petroleum products
• Liquefied gases
• Chemicals
• Terminal audits & loss-control investigations

Our staff participated fully in Nigeria’s destination inspection era (2006–2013), building deep skill in valuation, classification, risk detection, scanner maintenance, assessment, profiling and forecasting — expertise we now apply to clients’ own computerised risk-management systems.

• Customs import documentation & clearance risk review
• X-ray scanning operations & scanner maintenance
• Design and implementation of bespoke risk-management solutions

Strategically located to serve West African operations, our laboratories — held in association with technical partner Stewart Inter Sea Ltd (SISA) — offer a comprehensive range of chemical and petroleum analyses, continually upgraded for accuracy and speed.

• Spectrometer — metals detection
• Salinometer — salt-in-oil detection
• Horiba — sulphur-in-oil detection
• Draeger, Petrotest, Stanhope Seta & IROX apparatus
