A Namibian company established five years ago has expanded its reach into Mozambique’s oil and gas industry after partnering with Africa Global Logistics (AGL) Namibia to deliver specialised equipment from Walvis Bay to Pemba, a key logistics centre serving the Rovuma Basin’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) developments.
Right Equipped Solutions (RES), founded in Namibia in 2021, supplied specialised dry bulk equipment to an oil and gas support facility in Cabo Delgado, Mozambique, in a cross-border operation managed by AGL Namibia.
According to a joint statement issued on 28 October 2026, the equipment travelled across several countries, border posts and customs jurisdictions before reaching its destination on schedule, without disrupting the client’s operational timetable.
The delivery marks an expansion of RES’s involvement in the regional energy industry beyond Namibia, where it already supplies equipment to AGL’s oil and gas bases in Walvis Bay and Lüderitz.
RES managing member Henner Rodenwoldt said the operation demonstrated how Namibian businesses could use opportunities emerging from the development of oil and gas industries across Southern Africa.
“Right Equipped was founded in Namibia in 2021, and today we are supplying equipment to oil and gas operations on the other side of the continent. It shows how quickly Namibian businesses can grow alongside the energy sector when they have strong partners,” Rodenwoldt said.
The company specialises in equipment for the mining and earthmoving, ports and maritime, and oil and gas industries. Its services include customised machinery solutions, maintenance support and the supply of replacement parts.
The Mozambique delivery builds on an existing partnership between RES and AGL, which has operations on both sides of the African continent.
AGL manages the Walvis Bay Multipurpose Bulk Terminal and operates in Walvis Bay and Lüderitz, while its Mozambique business employs close to 900 logistics specialists across approximately 12 sites.
The company said this network enabled it to manage the movement of equipment from Namibia to Mozambique as a single logistics operation, covering transport, customs procedures and delivery to the destination facility.
The cargo was destined for a facility supporting offshore drilling operations in Mozambique’s Rovuma Basin, where LNG developments have created demand for specialised equipment and logistics services.
Although the companies did not disclose the value of the equipment or identify the recipient, they said the consignment was delivered in compliance with the customs and regulatory requirements encountered along the route.
The operation also illustrates the potential for Namibia’s emerging oil and gas services industry to participate in energy developments elsewhere in Africa, rather than relying exclusively on future production from the Orange Basin.
AGL Namibia managing director Ben Stenning said the shipment demonstrated the growing role of Namibia’s ports and logistics operators in regional energy supply chains.
“Namibia is building its reputation as SADC’s preferred trade gateway, and the oil and gas sector is a big part of that story. Moving specialised equipment from Walvis Bay all the way to Cabo Delgado shows what our ports, people and partners can already do,” Stenning said.
AGL operates in 51 countries, employing more than 23,000 people. Its African logistics network includes 24 port concessions and 66 dry ports.
The company said its presence in both Namibia and Mozambique allowed it to coordinate the shipment without relying on a fragmented chain of logistics providers.
Walvis Bay and Lüderitz are being developed as service and supply centres for Namibia’s offshore oil and gas industry, while Pemba serves as a logistics base for LNG-related activities in northern Mozambique.
AGL and RES said the delivery demonstrated the commercial opportunities that could emerge from connecting these energy centres through established transport routes, customs systems and regional partnerships.
The companies expect demand for cross-border logistics and specialised equipment services to grow as oil and gas projects create opportunities for suppliers operating across Southern Africa.
