Enersol intends to leverage DWS’ technologies to support ADNOC Drilling’s recent $1.7bn contract to deliver 144 unconventional wells to the ADNOC Group.

For the full year 2023, DWS reported strong financial results, with revenues exceeding $205m, a robust EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) margin, and an anticipated free cash flow of more than 10%.

This financial and operational strength aligns with Enersol’s strategy to build a scalable portfolio through strategic acquisitions.

The acquisition is a strategic move for Enersol, marking its fourth significant investment. It follows the pending acquisitions of EV, a downhole visual analytics company, and a 67% stake in Gordon Technologies, a provider of measurement while drilling services.

Enersol also recently agreed to acquire a 51% stake in NTS AMEGA, a precision equipment manufacturer for the energy sector, for $58m. The transaction excluded transaction fees, expenses and completion adjustments, positioning Enersol as the majority equity holder of NTS.

Alpha Dhabi acquired a 51% equity stake in NTS in October 2023, which Enersol agreed to purchase at the same valuation.
