Oman’s Abraj Energy Services announced on Tuesday that it signed a term sheet with Algeria’s state-owned oil company Sonatrach to establish a joint venture specialising in integrated oilfield services (drilling, workover and well services).

The development follows a memorandum of understanding signed by the two companies on 24 April 2024 in Oman's capital Muscat.

The MSX-listed Abraj said the strategic partnership with Sontrach includes potential for global expansion.

Financial details weren't disclosed.
