Global integrated logistics and material management company, ASCO has been awarded a contract to supply a comprehensive package of logistics services for DNO’s drilling of the 25/7-11 Norma well in license PL984 offshore of Norway.

The contract is based on ASCO’s framework agreement with Well Expertise and will be supplied from ASCO’s state-of-the-art supply base in Tananger, Norway. The suite of logistics services includes loading and unloading of ships, storage, delivery of bulks, transport and freight forwarding services, waste management, cargo carrying unit services and material handling of equipment.
