Houston-based oilfield service giant SLB has been awarded a contract by the Australian oil and gas company Woodside Energy for drilling on its ultra-deepwater Trion development project offshore Mexico.
SLB will oversee the delivery of 18 ultra-deepwater wells using an integrated services approach and AI-enabled drilling capabilities to improve operational efficiency and well quality.
The full scope of the contract includes digital directional drilling services and hardware, logging while drilling, surface logging, cementing, drilling and completions fluids, completions, and wireline services.
Services will begin in early 2026. This contract follows another contract from Woodside for the Trion development to SLB’s OneSubsea joint venture in 2023, which includes subsea horizontal trees, controls and topside equipment. Manufacturing is currently on track.
“With water depths of up to 2,500 meters, the Trion development presents challenging technical conditions for drilling and well construction,” said Wallace Pescarini, president of offshore Atlantic at SLB.
Woodside is developing the field in partnership with Mexican state-owned firm Pemex. First production is targeted for 2028.
