The contracts are for sand screens and for upper completions products including gas-lift equipment, chemical-injection equipment, subsurface safety valves (SSV), and downhole measurement tools.

The sand-screen contract covers both extended-reach onshore and offshore wells. A second contract covers gas-lift mandrels, gas-lift valves, chemical-injection equipment, surface-controlled SSVs, and downhole temperature and pressure gauges for wells on multiple rig lines.
