Our History
Shoreline Logistics Nigeria Limited (SLNL) was incorporated in July 31, 2006 as a subsidiary of Addax Petroleum Corporation.
In 2005, when ports in Nigeria were concessioned to qualified bidders, Addax Petroleum bidded for the operation of NPA Old Port Calabar through a Special Purpose Vehicle (Addax Logistics Nigeria Limited later renamed Shoreline Logistics Nigeria Limited – SLNL) and emerged successful. The Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) officially handed NPA Old Port to SLNL on May 25, 2007. Five years later, SLNL was awarded the management of an additional base (McIver Jetty) under a lease agreement with the NPA.
In 2016, Broadview Engineering Limited acquired most of Coastland Energy’s interest in Shoreline Logistics Nigeria Limited. Broadview Engineering Limited is an indigenous Engineering, Procurement and Project Management Company with corporate head office at No 101 Jubril Martins Street, Off Ajose Adeogun Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, Nigeria.
