3. Introduction
The 2015
Well Services Contractors Report
aims to present the key trends observed within the sector in 2014 and
provide an insight into the key issues and opportunities on the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS) as identified by these
companies.
The financial information in this publication is based on the services provided to operators in drilling andmaintaining
exploration, appraisal, development and production wells and does not include that which arises from the design,
manufacture and sale of drilling equipment. Some of the companies surveyed also have activity in other areas, but
these are not included in this report.
The data for this report were collected in March 2015 from responses to a survey sent to members of
Oil & Gas UK’s Well Services Contractors Forum. The companies included in this report represent the vast majority
of activity in the well services contractor sector on the UKCS.
The companies surveyed include:
Altus International
Archer (UK) Ltd
Baker Hughes
Frank’s International
Halliburton
Read Cased Hole Ltd
Schlumberger Oilfield Services
The questionnaire results are illustrated in an aggregated form and, for comparison purposes, data are shown
from the earliest available date. Not every member of the forum provided data in response to each question.
Currency figures are in US dollars and are in money of the day.
