Viking Completion Technology has achieved a key milestone in North Africa after delivering upper completion equipment for an onshore oil project, underscoring the company’s growing role in the region’s upstream sector.
The first phase of the project, completed in the first quarter of 2025, involved the supply of completion technology for 11 wells, alongside on-site technical support and training. A second order of five systems was delivered in the third quarter, with additional deliveries expected in the months ahead.
The equipment package included Tubing Retrievable Safety Valves (TRSVs), Tubing Expansion Joints, Sliding Side Doors, Hydraulic Set Production Packers, and associated accessories—solutions designed to strengthen well integrity, enhance operational efficiency, and support future workover operations. Four wells have already been completed using the technology, with the remainder progressing through the installation process.
Viking, headquartered in Dubai, has built a reputation for full-service completions, combining design, delivery, and commissioning support. The company has an established track record across the Middle East and Europe, and sees North Africa as a strategic growth market as regional operators look to optimize existing assets and advance new drilling campaigns.
“This project highlights Viking’s ability to manage the full lifecycle of completions,” said Paul Higginson, Sales and Operations Director. “From design to installation, we ensure well campaigns are executed efficiently and safely, delivering value to our customers while supporting the region’s growing energy needs.”
The successful deliveries strengthen Viking’s position as a completions supplier in North Africa at a time when demand for advanced technologies and reliable service partners is rising in support of onshore oilfield development.
