The management of Tantita Security Services Limited (TSSL) has unveiled its agenda to improve lives in the oil and gas coastal communities.
To this end, it has reiterated its commitment to combating crude oil theft and make the lives of people in the Niger Delta region better.
TSSL Executive Director, Technical and Operations, Captain Warredi Enisuoh disclosed this in a paper on infrastructure protection, security and prevention of oil theft at the just concluded first Pan Ijaw Economic Summit 2024 in the Bayelsa State capital, Yenagoa.
Warredi who was the guest speaker at the summit argued that an effective security of Nigeria’s public infrastructure and oil reserves will to a large extent enhance the benefits to the people and the country.
His words: “With carbon capture you have a lot of trees in these areas that can absolve carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. If they do not pollute the environment any further, these trees can thrive. We will be able to take stock of these trees and be able to generate more income for companies around the world. Many of them are willing to partner with regions like this in exchange for Green Development, to participate in industrial development that is not going to create further carbon emission, creating more global warming and also be able to improve the health and wellbeing of the inhabitants of the region alongside the development they are going to face.”
For a more social economic benefit to the Niger Delta region, Enisuoh called for the establishment and utilisation of carbon streaming to generate income for the communities.
According to him, you cannot remove social economic problems from security issues. We are here to also market how carbon streaming, carbon credit and carbon capture can generate a lot of money for the communities so that the communities can take their taste bud off the crude oil pipelines which is more or less damaging the environment, creating a reduction in lifespan.
He maintained that TSSL will continue to tackle the scourge of illegal bunkering through a comprehensive and inclusive strategy aimed at not only halting the illegal activities of crude oil theft but also educating and engaging those involved in the nefarious activities.
