VELOSI SECURES EUROPEAN SHELL CONTRACT
The Velosi Group ('Velosi'), a provider of quality assurance and quality control
services to a number of major national and multinational oil and gas companies,
is pleased to announce that it has been awarded the Shell EP Europe Inspection
and Expediting contract for a duration of three years.
In a competitive bid process Velosi has been awarded this exclusive contract,
effective from 1 January 2007. Shell Exploration and Production in the UK,
Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij (NAM) in the Netherlands, Norske Shell in
Norway and Enterprise Oil Ireland have recently combined to form one European
company, Shell EP Europe. The contract will cover work stemming from all four
of these Shell operations.
Velosi was previously awarded a contract in May 2003 with Shell UK Exploration
and Production covering work for the main Shell operating centre in Aberdeen.
This contract expired on 31 December 2006, those services now being included in
this new contract.
'This contract is a significant expansion of the one we previously held with
Shell UK,' said Dr Nabil Abdul Jalil, Chief Executive of Velosi. 'It reflects
well on the work we have done for Shell to date and on our ability to deliver
cost effective solutions on a global basis. The continuation of our relationship
with Shell in Europe is an excellent platform from which we can become involved
in further opportunities with Shell globally.'
