Prior to this time, it was the case that road construction projects were regularly interrupted due to shortage of Bitumen in the country.\u00a0 Ringardas changed this by establishing storage terminals in all the geo-political zones in Nigeria from where Bitumen could readily be made available to all contractors with ease.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The company also put in place a fleet of customized trucks that deliver hot Bitumen, ready to be used on delivery, to road contractors at construction sites all over Nigeria. The innovations introduced by the company eliminated the need to re-heat Bitumen supplied by the company before use, thereby saving time and energy hitherto expended by the contractors in heating the product before use. Thus, Bitumen has become readily available all over Nigeria for road construction projects.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-69d208e1dda9e {margin-top: 45px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-69d208e1dda9e\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Our History<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"quickfinder quickfinder-style-vertical-1 quickfinder-style-vertical quickfinder-icon-position-top quickfinder-alignment-center quickfinder-title-thin\" data-hover-icon-color=\"#213360\"><div id=\"post-24942\" data-ll-finish-delay=\"200\" class=\"quickfinder-item odd quickfinder-item-effect-scale large lazy-loading post-24942 thegem_qf_item type-thegem_qf_item status-publish\" data-ll-item-delay=\"0\"> <div class=\"quickfinder-item-info-wrapper\"> <svg class=\"qf-svg-arrow-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 50 100\"> <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/ascanigeria.com\/sabo\/wp-content\/themes\/thegem\/css\/post-arrow.svg#dec-post-arrow\"><\/use> <\/svg> <div class=\"connector-top\" style=\"border-color: #01b8e2; right: -81.5px;\"> <\/div> <div class=\"connector-bot\" style=\"border-color: #01b8e2; right: -81.5px;\"> <\/div> <div class=\"quickfinder-item-info lazy-loading-item\" data-ll-item-delay=\"200\" data-ll-effect=\"fading\"> <div style=\"display: block; min-height: 250px;\"> <div class=\"quickfinder-item-title\" >Rubis Energie Acquisition<\/div> <div class=\"quickfinder-item-text\" >In 2015, Rubis Energie, a France-based international oil company specialized in the storage, distribution and sale of liquid fuels, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), in over 30 countries acquired Ringardas together with its sister companies in Belgium, Senegal and Togo.
