Houston-headquartered energy services giant Halliburton has been awarded an integrated drilling and completion services contract by Shell’s Nigerian arm.
The contract, awarded by Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company (SNEPCo), in collaboration with Sunlink Energies, is for work on the HI gas field development in OML 144.
The project will provide feed gas supply to the Nigeria LNG Train 7 facility, one of the country’s most significant ongoing gas expansion initiatives. It is located about 50 km offshore, and will supply around 10m cu m of gas per day to the Nigeria LNG plant and is expected to begin production before the end of the decade.
Under the contract, the US firm will deploy a full suite of integrated drilling and completion solutions, including automation and remote operations, designed to enhance drilling precision, efficiency, and safety in deepwater environments.
The execution and integration services across the well lifecycle will be overseen by the company’s project management team.
“Our collaboration with SNEPCo and Sunlink Energies advances the HI gas field and contributes to the future of the energy industry in Nigeria,” said Shannon Slocum, president for the eastern hemisphere at Halliburton.
