March 27, 2025 [Storage Terminals Magazine]- Baker Hughes, a global energy technology company, has announced a multi-year contract with Dubai Petroleum Establishment, acting on behalf of Dubai Supply Authority, to provide integrated coiled-tubing drilling services for the Margham Gas storage project.

The project is designed to enhance Dubai’s energy stability by improving the system’s ability to transition between natural gas and solar power. Baker Hughes’ involvement in coiled-tubing drilling further strengthens its role in supporting the Margham Gas project, which is based on the mature Margham field. In addition to supplying Integrated Compressor Line units for gas storage, injection, and export, the company’s comprehensive portfolio is contributing to the creation of a reliable power infrastructure with lower emissions.

“Baker Hughes has built a reputation as a leader in coiled-tubing drilling and mature asset solutions, and we bring a track record of success across the region to this important project,” said Amerino Gatti, executive vice president of Oilfield Services & Equipment at Baker Hughes. “Our integrated solutions approach combines industry-leading technology and expertise across the energy value chain to help DPE scale up and develop reliable, secure, and lower-carbon power solutions for their country.”

The project integrates Baker Hughes’ expertise in coiled-tubing drilling, under-balanced drilling, and its advanced CoilTrak™ coiled-tubing bottomhole assembly (BHA) system. CoilTrak enhances operators’ ability to navigate the subsurface environment more effectively during horizontal drilling, maximising reservoir contact—an essential factor for underground gas storage.

With this latest contract, Baker Hughes continues to expand its role in advancing energy security and efficiency in the Middle East.
