UK-based Expro Group has been awarded new contracts from Tullow Oil worth more than US$100 million over three years.
The contracts will see Expro work across Tullow Oil’s assets in Ghana, including the Jubilee field and the Tweneboa-Enyenra-Ntomme (TEN) field project (see map).
Following on from Expro’s phase one contract for Jubilee, involving more than 10 completions, the company has been awarded continued services for phase 1a. This covers completions on new wells for Jubilee, as well as interventions and remedial work.
A number of Expro’s product lines and services will be utilized, including large bore subsea completion landing strings, subsea exploration and appraisal landing strings, high flow rate surface well testing and sampling services.
The TEN project will also see Expro provide subsea completion work in all planned wells.
Expro has invested over $32 million in Ghana since entering the market in 2008 to support clients such as Tullow.
Riccardo Muttoni, Expro’s Sub-Saharan Africa Region Director, comments: “These contracts build on investments Expro has made over the past 5 years including the establishment of our world class operating facility in Takoradi. We are proud that 70% of our workforce in-country, including 20 graduate engineers, is Ghanaian, which we are looking to increase to 85% by 2017.”
Expro’s Sub-Saharan Africa operational headquarters are in the Ghanaian capital, Accra.
