Bentec wins major contract in Algeria
Seven desert drilling rigs within the next 17 months

German based manufacturer of drilling rigs and equipment, Bentec has won the largest single contract in its 20 year history. The multi-million dollar contract was awarded by Algerian state owned drilling contractor, Enafor and will see Bentec deliver seven desert drilling rigs within the next 17 months.

All drilling rigs will be fully equipped with Bentec equipment, including top drives, pumps, drawworks, power control rooms and electrical controls, all of which are manufactured at Bentec’s Bad Bentheim site.

Bentec previously sold and successfully delivered four drilling rigs to Enafor in 2013.

Bentec’s unique combination of technical solutions, industry knowledge and expertise were the decisive factors that Enafor needed when selecting a drilling rig and equipment manufacturer to significantly modernise its drilling rig fleet.

Dirk Schulze, Bentec Chief Executive Officer said: “We are extremely proud to have secured our largest deal since the company was established in 1994. We work hard to maintain the highest quality standards across our drilling rig systems and this success is testament to that, the services we provide and our continued commitment to developing additional business in Algeria.”

Bentec is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of drilling rigs and oilfield equipment with a long history and vast experience. Bentec manufactures and delivers high-quality, cost-effective and durable drilling and oilfield systems for harsh and hostile environments to serve the needs of the international oil and gas drilling industry.
