Expro has been awarded a well testing contract in south west Algeria. The
comapny will supply specialist well testing services and equipment on up to
nine wells by
the start of September 2010.
Expro's portable processing equipment measures the expected performance of a
well. The process involves flowing the well through a provisional completion
and
production system to measure pressure and flow rates, and gather fluid samples.
These measurements are used to determine commercial viability, as well as to
plan
potential completion and production facilities.
“This is a fantastic win for the Expro MENA team, with our work in Algeria
becoming a significant part of our business. Well testing has been a strong
sector of
Expro's offering for over 35 years and the knowledge and experience of the
collective team ensures we always deliver above and beyond for our customers.
This is
a deserved win,” said, Expro's director for MENA region, Nigel Meany.
