Work Detail |
Norwegian engineering consultancy and software firm AGR, part of ABL Group, has signed a contract extension with Equinor for the provision of blowout and well control studies on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS). “The contract reinforces a long-standing collaboration with the largest operator on the NCS,” said Morten Haug Emilsen, AGR’s manager for well control. AGR has carried out more than 250 studies for Equinor since 1991 and under the new two-year agreement, the company will offer services such as blowout contingency planning, well control emergency response, casing magnetisation service, and general transient flow analyses. Norwegian oil-services investment company Akastor sold AGR to energy and marine consultancy ABL Group last year in a cash-and-stock deal. Following last year’s merger with Add Energy, AGR became one of the global oil and gas industry’s largest well and reservoir engineering, drilling and technical safety operations groups. |
