Égypte : Shell livre le navire de forage Stena Forth pour un projet d'exploration au large du pays

Offshore drilling company Stena Drilling has signed a contract with Shell to use the Stena Forth drillship in Egypt.

The contract was signed with Shell's subsidiaries, BG Delta Limited and BG International Limited.

The Stena Forth is expected to begin operating for Shell in 2023, at the end of existing contractual commitments.

Three wells will be drilled in the Mediterranean as part of the Shell exploration project. The project will involve managed pressure drilling (MPD) using the system owned and installed by Stena Drilling on the Stena Forth.

To note, oil majors Eni and Chevron announced on Sunday a new gas discovery in an Egyptian offshore field in the eastern Mediterranean. The rig used for the drilling was the Stena Forth.
