Michael Wring, Chief Executive of Nobel Oil Services, highlighted the acquisition as a perfect reflection of Nobel Oil Services' growth strategy. “Our purchase of half of Denholm's business in Azerbaijan aims to create superior capability and value in Azerbaijan through joint ventures with renowned first-class service providers in oil and gas and adjacent sectors,” he said.

“Nobel Oil Services is an excellent partner and both parties are fully committed to growing the business and building on Denholm’s reputation as a first class fabricator in Azerbaijan,” Denholm Oilfield Services Limited Chairman, John Denholm said, commenting on the sale.

“Nobel has interests in various upstream activities and we see significant cross selling opportunities as a result of this deal.”
