NorSea Group has won a five-year contract with Wild Well Control for the storage of its emergency response WellContained System at NorSea facilities in Montrose in east Scotland.
The WellContained system of services includes contingency planning and response from Source Control Emergency Response Planning (SCERP) through field deployment of the system capping a subsea uncontrolled well.
NorSea operations director Mike Munro, said: “This type of hi-tech intervention equipment is designed to minimise exposure in the event of an offshore emergency and a top priority is the ability to respond without delay.
“Our storage and supply base operations at Montrose, with direct quayside access and geographical proximity meet all the requirements for optimising response time.”
Wild Well president Freddy Gebhardt, his company was happy to make a commitment to the region for the exclusive use of warehousing facilities for the system.
Montrose Port Authority chief executive Nik Scott-Gray, said: “We are delighted that NorSea Group and Wild Well have forged this new relationship, which broadens the marine and offshore services portfolio we can offer at Montrose Port.
“The port is strategically placed as a service and logistics hub for the offshore oil and gas sectors, and this new agreement helps advance our ongoing development and expansion plans.”
NorSea Group has a 15-year lease agreement with MPA on the South Base covering warehousing and 11,000m2 of external quayside laydown.
