Drilling and Completions
Our Drilling and Completions services are tailored to deliver reliable, efficient, and high-quality solutions for wellbore construction across the entire well lifecycle—from exploration through to final completion.
We operate advanced drilling rigs capable of drilling to depths of up to 5,000 meters, supporting a wide range of applications, including, geothermal, lithium, underground gas storage, carbon capture and storage (CCS), geological disposal facilities (GDF), oil and gas, geotechnical, and water.
Our rigs are fully equipped to handle complex and demanding drilling operations, ensuring that each well is drilled with the utmost precision, safety, and efficiency.
With over 100 years of combined experience, our team specialises in managing the complete well lifecycle—from the initial planning and wellbore design to drilling and final well completion.
We offer a turnkey service for clients seeking comprehensive solutions, which include project management, logistics, execution, and post-drilling support. For clients who require a more tailored approach, we also provide semi-turnkey and day rate services, giving you the flexibility to select the level of service that best aligns with your needs at each stage of the drilling process.
Our senior leadership team brings global experience from both onshore and offshore operations, with hands-on expertise in a diverse range of well types. These include underbalanced drilling, Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD), High Pressure and High Temperature (HPHT) wells, as well as vertical, directional, horizontal, S-shaped, high inclination, multilateral wells and complex extended reach wells (ERD) with vertical departures of over 6,000m. We pride ourselves on our ability to adapt to the unique challenges of each well, delivering solutions that meet our clients’ specific technical and commercial requirements.
