ConocoPhillips Skandinavia AS (ConocoPhillips) has awarded Halliburton a significant five-year contract to provide a full range of well stimulation services aimed at boosting well performance and enhancing reservoir productivity. The agreement also includes three optional extension periods, potentially extending the collaboration well beyond the initial term.
As part of the contract, Tidewater’s vessel, North Pomor, will undergo a major transformation into a state-of-the-art stimulation vessel, purpose-built to deliver efficient and effective offshore well stimulation operations in the challenging conditions of the North Sea. The vessel upgrades will feature advanced technology, including Halliburton’s proprietary Octiv digital fracturing services, which are designed to optimise stimulation equipment performance, streamline operations, and improve overall efficiency.
The project represents a key step in Halliburton’s strategy to offer integrated, technology-driven solutions for complex offshore developments. By combining vessel capabilities with cutting-edge digital tools, Halliburton aims to deliver consistent, high-quality stimulation treatments that help operators unlock additional value from existing reservoirs while supporting safe and efficient offshore operations.
According to the company, this latest contract award underscores Halliburton’s market leadership in stimulation services and its ability to tailor solutions to the specific needs of offshore environments. For ConocoPhillips, the partnership is expected to play an important role in maintaining and enhancing production levels in the North Sea, a region where operational efficiency and innovation are essential to long-term energy output.
Mark Dawson, senior vice president, Halliburton Completion and Production division, said, "We are pleased to strengthen our longstanding relationship with ConocoPhillips through this important award. This contract win complements our extensive experience in well stimulation and highlights how we execute globally. The combination of our latest technology and our focus on automation and safety is how we maximise value for our customers."
