Aberdeen inspection specialist ADC Energy wins $1m contract for work on five vessels

Aberdeen-headquartered ADC Energy has secured a contract worth more than $1 million (£930,000) to deliver work for five vessels for a North American company.

Under the agreement, ADC Energy will conduct assessments of all five vessels, utilising historical data gathered from its prior experience related to rig design and original equipment manufacturer equipment to identify areas of potential risk to safety and performance.

The five assets which will be supported as part of the contract include an ultra-deepwater semi-submersible vessel capable of operations in both harsh and benign environments, as well as four ultra-deepwater drill ships. The rigs, which are at different operational stages, are supporting drilling operations around the world.

Headquartered in Aberdeen, ADC Energy has offices in Houston, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore.
