UK Firm Extends Subsea Well Support Contract for Egyptian Operations
British engineering firm Aquaterra Energy has secured an extension to continue providing subsea well support services offshore Egypt, building on successful collaboration since 2023 covering seven well locations.
Under the extended contract, Aquaterra will continue analysis of producing subsea wells drilled from semi-submersible rigs, including managing conductor strength during vessel drift and drive-off scenarios while optimizing casing grades and joint space-outs.
“This extension marks an important continuation of our relationship with one of the region’s key operators,” said Martin Harrop, Offshore Analysis Manager at Aquaterra Energy. “Working together over the past two years, we’ve delivered targeted analysis to support safe and efficient well operations in a technically complex environment.”
Aquaterra’s proprietary ORANGE software plays a crucial role by automating dynamic simulations, post-processing, and code checks, supporting assessments of wellhead extension joint designs and seasonal environmental sensitivities to guide equipment selection and rig scheduling.
