HB Rentals, the global offshore accommodation specialist to the oil and gas industry, has signed three new agreements worth $1 million in the Middle East since the turn of the year.

Leading provider of liftboats, Hercules Offshore, has awarded HB Rentals a six to 12-month contract for its Amber Jack self-propelled jack-up barge, said a company statement.

The deal will see the company provide four, eight-man accommodation modules including service provision from installation to power generation and sewerage system, it stated.

The company won the second contract from Abu Dhabi-based National Petroleum Construction Company (NPCC) and comprises a six-month rental agreement for four accommodation modules including modular stairways and walkways.

HB Rentals said it has also landed a contract from global engineering and construction business MacDermott International.

The scope of the contract includes accommodation modules, toilets, offices for use as an emergency overnight shelter for the carousel deck of a barge currently moored in Dubai and will be working in Saudi.

Michael Bradley, the director of sales and business development at HB Rentals, said: 'The new contract wins are testament to our growing success across the GCC and the Middle East since establishing our presence here just over a year ago.'

'We are delighted to have won such significant contracts that were put out to competitive tender,' he added.

'Our focus moving forward will be continuing to deliver outstanding quality of product as well as service to our customers, ensuring that we remain the accommodation specialists of choice in the region,' Bradley said.

'We are confident that the year ahead will hold a continued stream of business opportunities and we look forward to announcing further deals in the months to come,' he added.-TradeArabia News Service
