Fossil Energy – Deepwater Drilling

Stena Drilling announced the award of a new exploratory drilling campaign by Energean Hellas for the MODU Stena DrillMAX.

This campaign, which is expected to commence in early 2027, is for one firm well offshore Greece, in Block 2 located at the Northwestern Ionian Sea, with Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) requirement.

This will be the first ever deepwater offshore well drilled in Greece, and Stena Drilling is proud to have been selected to deliver this project together with Energean.
