Expro has been awarded a two year contract to provide well testing services for INEOS.

The contract will see Expro provide testing services for at least three wells, including two new drills and one re-entry, at the Breagh Alpha platform as part of the Southern North Sea (SNS) Development Programme.

The contract includes an option to extend for a further two wells, the company noted.

Neil Sims, vice president for Europe CIS region, said: “We are excited to be working with a new operator like INEOS Breagh and this contract signifies the commitment both companies have to the SNS area. The possibility of a further three wells shows the potential still remaining in the region.”

Mervyn Williams, supply chain manager at INEOS Breagh, added: “INEOS Breagh is delighted to have partnered with Expro for well testing services. We saw in Expro a keen value proposition and a highly professional team that we are convinced will add genuine value to our Breagh Alpha drilling programme.”
