The deal to Weatherford has been awarded by state-controlled Petroleum Development Oman, which produces 90 per cent of the sultanate's oil. "It is an extension of the original contract. Weatherford’s drilling will help the productivity of the oilfields and overcome our production problems," a project official said.
