By joining Expro, we combine our advanced managed pressure drilling solutions with Expro’s global reach and integrated well lifecycle capabilities. Together, this strengthens our ability to support operators in improving well delivery, managing operational risk, and increasing execution certainty in technically demanding offshore environments.
Headquartered in Norway, Enhanced Drilling is a recognized technology leader within managed pressure drilling, with a strong track record across challenging offshore environments, including the North Sea, Gulf of America, West Africa, the Caspian region, and Asia Pacific. Our technologies are designed to manage narrow drilling windows, improve wellbore control, reduce non-productive time, and simplify well designs through increased efficiency.
Through Expro’s global operating footprint and established customer relationships, Enhanced Drilling’s technologies are expected to see accelerated international adoption across key offshore markets.
"This transaction marks an exciting new chapter for Enhanced Drilling. Becoming part of Expro provides an opportunity to scale our technologies through a global organization with deep operational expertise and longstanding customer relationships. We look forward to working together to expand the reach of our solutions.” - Kjetil Lunde, CEO of Enhanced Drilling
The combination also strengthens Expro’s position in Norway, a strategically important offshore market known for technical leadership, while reinforcing Enhanced Drilling’s role as a provider of differentiated managed pressure drilling technologies. Our early involvement in design and planning complements Expro’s strategy of delivering technology‑enabled solutions across the well lifecycle.
“Enhanced Drilling is a strong strategic fit that expands our portfolio and strengthens our relevance in Norway. Their managed pressure drilling technologies complement Expro’s existing capabilities and align closely with our focus on helping customers improve efficiency, manage risk, and deliver wells with greater certainty.” - Michael Jardon, CEO of Expro
Total consideration to be paid at closing is approximately NOK 2 billion in cash, subject to customary closing and working capital adjustments. The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026.
Until the transaction is completed, Enhanced Drilling and Expro will continue to operate independently, with no expected disruption to customers, partners, or suppliers.
