The work will last for an initial term of five years with two options to extend by one year.
The exact value of the deal has not been disclosed.
President of offshore at KCA Deutag, Rune Lorentzen, said: “KCA Deutag is delighted to have won this new contract.
“We have been working with Enquest on the Thistle and Heather platforms since 1990, and are pleased that this relationship continues to strengthen and that the quality of our work has been recognised with the additional award of the Magnus platform.”
