Another great challenging for international Organizations and Oil& Gas companies in Yemen is the process of transporting goods and equipment from national ports
to designated destinations and vice versa in safely & timely manner. In Yemen, transporting goods and equipment is a very challenging process due to many
obstacles and security threats including, but not limited to, the following:

• Lack of a national addressing system in Yemen results in difficult process to identify, estimate distance & duration, and track transportation process to desired destination. Limited knowledge of the availability, type, and status of transportation routes companied with limited accessibility to many rural and remotes sites by land, sea, or air results in difficult or improper determination of transporting methods, routes, and equipment to transport the goods safely and in a timely manner.
• Lack of qualified labor in the local market for packing, loading, unloading, securing, and fastening different types of goods and material according to goods’ specific MSDS along with international regulations and standard results in high risk of damage to transported goods.
• Limited availability and capability of government security services, especially in rural areas and remote sites, makes transported goods along with the transportation equipment and team vulnerable to looting and some cases kidnapping by road outlaws and/or thieves. All these Abstacles and security threats increase the risk of goods ‘damage, heft,and or delayed delivery to desired destination in a safety and timely manner, and that is why many international organizations and Oil& Gas companies prefer to transport their goods through SWLS national transportation services such as:

1. Specialized transportation services nationwide in compliance with specific local and international safety and protection regulations, guidelines, and standards.
2. High profile security detail escorting goods during transportation.
3. Dedicated communications, monitoring, and management team to supervise the delivery process.
