A clear commitment to a low-carbon plan is a prerequisite for a large amount of the contract, Expro noted.

The value of the new contract was not disclosed.

Expro Europe and sub-Saharan Africa regional vice-president Iain Farley said: “The contract award is an excellent example of how we continue to build on our collaborative engagement with Equinor.

“The ongoing seven-year contract has allowed us to work together to drive value through production optimisation that encapsulates our ability to reduce our carbon footprint at all stages of project delivery.

 “We take pride in employing a local workforce in Expro Norway AS and will continue to invest in our people, bringing new talent to our operational team, to continue to deliver the performance this important client expects of Expro.”
