Synertec managing director Michael Carroll said: “The contracts with NCOC, whilst initially small, were secured following their extensive pre-qualification process of international organisations and will provide future opportunities for Synertec.

“In our view, the contracts are testament that Synertec can secure highly complex projects, both domestically and internationally and supports the strategy of adopting a more global perspective.”

NCOC is the operator of activities under the 5,600km² North Caspian Sea production sharing agreement (NCSPSA) area.

"The area hosts the Kashagan field, which is claimed to be one of the largest petroleum developments in the world."
