The Maersk Drilling Offshore Driller Signed a Contract with Aker Energy to Drill Wells in Ghana with the Maersk Viking Rig

The contract with Aker Energy is expected to last 30 to 35 days, with options for additional wells, scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of 2018, Maersk Drilling reported on Tuesday. The Maersk Viking is currently in the Gulf of Mexico and will commence its journey to Ghana soon.

Morten Kelstrup, CCIO of Maersk Drilling, said: “The contract for the Maersk Viking marks our third rig operating in Ghana. We have a strong commitment to local job creation and skills development, and our new joint venture with Prime Meridian Docks, PMD Viking Ghana, will provide local services in connection with this operation.”

The Maersk Viking, which was built in 2014, will drill at an ultra-deep depth of 2,674 meters in the Deepwater Tano Cape Three Points (DWT / CTP) block.

“We are pleased to reach this important milestone that will allow us to start drilling the significant appraisal well Pecan-4A. The main objective of the well will be to test the extent of the Pecan field. This will provide valuable and crucial contributions to optimizing the Development Plan for the field and to understanding the broader appraisal potential of the block,” said Jan Arve Haugan, CEO of Aker Energy.

The contract is awarded by Aker Energy on behalf of the license group and as the operator of the DWT / CTP block. Aker Energy is the operator of the block with a 50% stake. Aker Energy’s partners are LUKOIL (38%), Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (10%), and Fueltrade (2%).
