Pritam Kad, Oil & Gas Analyst at GlobalData, comments: “Notable contracts that made significant contributions in terms of value include Saudi Aramco’s 16 contracts, with a combined worth of US$10 billion for the subsurface and engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) works for the development of the Jafurah shale gas field in Saudi Arabia. Moreover, rising crude oil prices and improved margins helped to gain further momentum for contracts activity.”.

GlobalData’s latest report, ‘Q4 2021 Global Oil & Gas Industry Contracts Review’, although the number of contracts declined from 1608 in Q3 2021 to 1383 in Q4, overall contract value increased substantially from US$34.32 billion in Q3 to US$60.84 billion in Q4.

In terms of single scopes, operation and maintenance (O&M) represented 48% of the total contracts in Q4 2021, followed by procurement with 19%, and contracts with multiple scopes, such as construction, design and engineering, installation, O&M, and procurement accounted for 17%.

Other notable contracts include Yinson Holdings’ subsidiaries two contracts with Petrobras for the charter, and operation and maintenance services for the Integrado Parque das Baleias (IPB) floating, production, storage, and offloading (FPSO) vessel operating in the North Campos Basin, offshore Brazil, and ADNOC Drilling’s five-year drilling services agreement worth US$3.8 billion with ADNOC Onshore for the provision of drilling, workover, and other well services in the UAE.
