Armored Vehicles for Energy and Mining Operations in Africa
B6 armored 4×4s, crew transport and escort vehicles for oil, gas and mining operators in Nigeria, Kenya, DRC, Senegal, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana and Tanzania. Built for rotation schedules, remote sites and unsurfaced roads.
Threat picture
Site and route conditions
Energy and mining fleets run fixed rotations between camp, site and airstrip. The routes are known to everyone, including the people planning against them.
01
Crew rotation transport
Fixed-schedule runs between camp and site are the predictable leg. Convoy-capable builds carry a full crew with equipment.
02
Remote site access
Unsurfaced roads and river crossings demand reinforced suspension, raised air intake and protected underbody.
03
Kidnap risk for expatriate staff
B6 protection on staff transport, with escort vehicles specified to match the convoy speed.
04
Field serviceability
Mechanically simple diesel platforms that a site workshop can maintain without specialist tooling.
Vehicles
Vehicles for site and rotation duty
A mechanical 4×4 for site roads, an escort pickup for convoy work, and a modern SUV for supervision and management movement.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
01Which platform suits unsurfaced site roads?
A mechanical diesel 4×4 with reinforced suspension, raised air intake and protected underbody. It is the build that survives daily rotation on unpaved approach roads.
02Can vehicles carry a full crew with equipment?
Yes. Crew transport builds are specified for rotation runs, with seating and storage set during the build.
03Do you supply escort vehicles for convoys?
Yes, matched to the convoy speed and specified with radio provisions and reinforced load beds.
04Can a site workshop maintain the vehicles?
The recommended platforms keep standard drivetrains, so a site workshop can service them without specialist tooling.
05What protection level do operators usually specify?
B6 for staff and crew transport. B7 or STANAG 4569 where the route or site carries a blast risk.
06How are fleets delivered to remote operations?
Shipping runs to the nearest port or airport, with export documentation handled as part of the order.
