About PWO Onshore

Popham Walter Odusote (PWO) was formed in 2001 as a Nigeria limited company in a joint venture of OOP Consultants (OOP) in Lagos (founded in 1982) and Popham Walter Architects (PWA) in the US (founded in 1981) to bring high-quality architectural and engineering services to the oil and gas industry, to government, and to other prestigious interests in Nigeria and West Africa.

Since that time, Popham Walter Odusote has matured into a firm with 100% Nigerian ownership and over 70 professional and managerial staff in a single location on Victoria Island.
