ABERDEEN, UK – Aberdeen Drilling School (ADS), part of the well engineering/well control training specialist RelyOn Nutec Group, has acquired Oiltec Solutions from Teresoft AS.
Oiltec, based in southwest Norway, provides cyber-based drilling simulation and crane operations training, and constructed a purpose-built simulator for Equinor.
The company will provide the central simulation technology and development team at ADS, creating an in-house technology that will be rolled out through the group’s worldwide training centers, with simulator-based training available wherever clients’ operations and fleets are based.
Jim Sutherland, chairman of ADS, said: “We can now produce, manage and customize our simulators to our clients’ specifications, creating the… drilling and crane simulation that international operators and contractors have long been asking for.”
