“We are delighted at Warrior Security to have been commissioned to provide a range of security solutions to multinational gas and oil giants BG Group. Our provision of services for the British-based company commenced on September 1st at locations across Tanzania that include Lindi, Mtwara and Dar es Salaam.”

The hydrocarbon industry brings its own particular set of security demands. Warrior’s rigorous risk analysis procedures, advanced training programmes and crisis management capabilities make us well-placed to provide the complex and high-level protection required for a company engaged in resource exploration and extraction.

Warrior’s security arrangement with BG includes state-of-the-art alarm and CCTV systems and the provision of a substantial guard service. The guards operating at this deployment have been given intensive training to prepare them for this niche deployment, as well as passing through the usual rigorous Warrior training programme. Warrior CEO Tony Sugden said: “We are supplying over 160 security guards to BG. They have undergone intensive specialised training and have great understanding of the region. This is as part of our business model in achieving the highest standards in the training of guards, security audits and security consulting.

“At Warrior Security, we’re thrilled to be playing our part in supporting the exploration and pre-development operation and to contribute to its success by providing the exceptional standard of security services on which we’ve built our own success – and we are proud to work alongside BG Group at this exciting time of economic opportunity for East Africa.”
