    HOUSTON – Odfjell Drilling and William Jacob Management (WJM) have signed a cooperation agreement under which the companies will mutually deliver engineering services of offshore drilling facilities to the global energy market.

    The services will include conceptual and front-end engineering and design (FEED) studies, project planning, procurement, commissioning/startup, construction management, and maintenance.

    The strategic partnership leverages Odfjell Drilling’s drilling experience in fixed and mobile offshore drilling units (MODUs), including a sixth-generation fleet, with WJM’s execution of capital projects, such as Peregrino, Polvo, Azurite, and Berkut, as well as modular offshore rig facilities. The sum of their efforts will target clients in need of newbuild drilling facilities or maintenance of an aging fleet.

    Under the agreement, WJM will also provide engineering and project management services to complement and strengthen the execution teams of Odfjell Drilling’s projects globally.
