KCA DEUTAG has a long track record of successful operations in the Middle East, and is currently working in Pakistan, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

United Arab Emirates
KCA DEUTAG maintains a presence in Jebel Ali, UAE, to support our activities in the Middle East.

KCA DEUTAG has used various fabrication facilities in Jebel Ali as part of our extensive rig upgrade and fleet extension strategy. Recent projects include rig T-210, destined to work for PDO in Oman, the T-209, which has a contract with Shell in Nigeria, and the T-19, which has recently been mobilised for a contract for Verenex in Libya.

Oman
KCA DEUTAG has been operating continuously in Oman since 1964. We currently have eight rigs under contract in Oman for PDO, including T-51, a 3000hp drilling rig which is among the heaviest of all the rigs working for any company in the Middle East. The 2000hp rig T-210, recently refurbished in the UAE, started its long-term commitment with PDO in early 2007.

KCA DEUTAG’s Middle East rig fleet has been designed and constructed for drilling operations in the desert where temperatures can exceed 50°C, and all rigs are mounted on trailers for speed and ease of movement.

The company is fully committed to its ‘Omanisation Programme’, designed to progressively increase the percentage of Omani citizens employed in enterprises located in Oman and build up the national reservoir of skills pool.
