An Aberdeenshire oil and gas well technology firm has received a major boost after netting a multi-million pound contract with Norwegian energy major Statoil.
Darcy - which takes its name from Darcy’s Law, the foundation for the understanding of fluid flows in porous media – tested its new “sand control” technology on Statoil’s Statfjord field on the Norwegian North Sea earlier this year.
Darcy will now supply its patented Endurance Hydraulic Screen technology to Statoil as part of a contract that is expected to run for seven years and is worth millions of pounds to the firm.
Scottish sand control specialist Darcy has seen its patented down-hole screening technology achieve an industry first following a successful trial with energy giant Statoil.
