Integrated drilling and environmental solutions firm TWMA says it has become the first company to be awarded an offshore processing contract in Angola.
The agreement, worth up to $35m, will see TWMA take the concept of offshore processing to the rapidly developing area, through the design, installation and operation of a bespoke system on-board a new-build drillship to support a major global operator’s drilling campaign.
TWMA will also set up a new onshore support facility in Luanda and create up to 50 new jobs, in Aberdeen and Angola, by the end of the year.
TWMA is currently working with clients in the UK, Norway, Egypt, Cameroon, Abu Dhabi, Canada and the United States; treating and recycling in excess of 100,000 tonnes of drill cuttings and associated fluids annually.
