Viaro Group has appointed well management company, Exceed Energy, as the well operator for the 192 wells from One Gas West assets.
This follows Viaro’s acquisition of the North Sea assets from Shell and ExxonMobil.
The contract will enable Exceed to manage all aspects of late life well operations, starting with the decommissioning of the 26 wells associated with the SNS Leman Foxtrot and Golf platforms, which commences later this year.
This will be followed by well intervention and further decommissioning operations, as well as the development of new gas production wells as per the five-year, multi-million contract.
Marking the win as the most significant in its 20-year history, John Anderson, Exceed's Commercial Director – Wells, said, "Our well and reservoir management capabilities have gained an outstanding reputation for the ability to balance decarbonisation with energy security and affordability, as we continue to champion a sustainable UK energy transition.
"Understandably, this contract has been keenly contested across the North Sea industry, and we are delighted that our capacity and competency have been recognised by Viaro as providing optimum levels of expertise and support for its major acquisition."
