Oxy Set to Take Over Drilling at Abu Dhabi’s Shah Gas Field

摘要

The Occidental-led consortium Al Hosn Gas will take over drilling operations at Abu Dhabi’s Shah sour gas field in February, a company official said Sunday. Richard Singleton, vice president for subsurface gas at Al Hosn Gas, said wells are currently being drilled by Abu Dhabi Company for Onshore Oil Operations (Adco), an upstream unit of Abu Dhabi National Oil Co. (Adnoc). The arrangement will change in February, when Singleton said Al Hosn Gas would “take over our own onshore drilling.” “We are spending a lot of time in that transition with our staff at the rig site,” he added.
