FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: July 31, 1995
Shell Awards Completion Work On Mars Project
NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana - Shell Offshore has awarded completion services including completion products, downhole tools, Tubing Conveyed Perforating (TCP), and sand control (FracPac Services) on the MARS project in the Gulf of Mexico to Halliburton Energy Services.
Located at Mississippi Canyon Block 807 in 2,900 feet of water, MARS is the world's largest deepwater project, surpassing Shell's Auger project in the Garden Banks area of the Gulf of Mexico. Phase one drilling on the MARS project began in November 1993. Halliburton was previously awarded the open-hole logging work on this initial phase of the project.
A tension leg platform will be installed in early 1996 and completion will commence shortly thereafter. The platform will eventually accommodate 20 to 22 wells with total production expected to exceed 100 thousand bbls/day in 1999.
Halliburton Energy Services, a Halliburton Company organization, is one of the world's leading suppliers of energy products and services. Founded in 1919, the organization provides a broad range of services and products to the energy industry on a global basis.
