SLB has been awarded a contract by Brunei Shell Petroleum (BSP) to support production restoration from shut-in wells across multiple offshore fields.

The project covers subsurface evaluation, well candidate selection, engineering and offshore execution, alongside intervention services, monitoring, metering and marine logistics.

The integrated approach is designed to improve production efficiency and recovery from mature offshore assets.

“Building on our long collaboration in the region, this contract reflects a shared commitment to maximising value from existing offshore resources,” said Gokhan Yarim, senior vice president of Integration, SLB. “Together with BSP, we are combining SLB’s production expertise and integrated execution capabilities to help restore production from shut-in wells, increase recovery from existing infrastructure and support BSP’s long-term production objectives.”

The project marks SLB’s first integrated production restoration deployment for BSP, bringing multiple technical disciplines and workflows under a coordinated execution model.

The programme follows Well, Reservoir and Facility Management principles, combining surveillance, engineering and intervention planning to optimise production while supporting safe and efficient operations.

The contract reflects growing industry efforts to maximise recovery from existing infrastructure as operators seek to extend the productive life of mature offshore fields. -OGN/TradeArabia News Service
