Halliburton has been awarded a wellwork integrated services contract by ExxonMobil Iraq for refurbishment of wells in the West Qurna (Phase 1) field in southern Iraq.
Halliburton will provide on-site logistics and technical support for both rigless and rig-assisted workovers. Other services provided by Halliburton include provision of a workover rig, coiled tubing, slickline services, logging, production enhancement and well testing.
“We believe Halliburton’s strong presence in Iraq, coupled with our technical leadership, was a factor in securing this contract from ExxonMobil Iraq Limited,” said Dave Lesar, Halliburton’s chairman, president and CEO. “We’re pleased to see our investment and commitment to provide services within Iraq being recognised by companies such as ExxonMobil and its West Qurna (Phase 1) project co-venturers.”
In early September, the company won a similar contract for the redevelopment of the Zubair oil field also in southern Iraq and in August Shell Iraq Petroleum Development awarded it a Letter of Intent for the development of the Majnoon field in the same region.
