German manufacturer of drilling rigs and equipment, Bentec has won its 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 manufactures and delivers drilling and oilfield systems for harsh and hostile environments to serve the needs of the international oil and gas drilling industry. Dirk Schulze, Bentec CEO 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.”
