The contract, which follows on from the drilling services contract that Weatherford was awarded in 2015, includes Weatherford’s full suite of drilling technologies along with its Centro well construction optimisation platform for high-quality reservoir-characterisation data. This end-to-end solution seamlessly integrates all well data for advanced multi-domain viewing and real time analytics of operations, facilitating collaboration, enhanced transparency, and advanced agility to maximise efficiencies for Bapco Energies while maintaining a cost-effective operation.

Girish Saligram, Weatherford President and CEO, commented, “I am pleased Bapco Energies selected Weatherford as it continues to advance its drilling programme. Weatherford has performed drilling services in Bahrain since 2016, and this award reaffirms our partnership and further showcases the value of our comprehensive drilling portfolio and cutting-edge digital capabilities.”
