Gard Karlsen, co-founder of Completion Services, says: “Storengy got a test installation of CSD earlier this year and after extensive testing of the functionality in software, they have decided to purchase CSD licenses. This means that we have gotten our first customer in France but it also means that we are moving into a new segment as Storengy is a major player in underground gas storage and not a traditional oil company. The CSD application was initially made for offshore operations but the flexibility in the application means that it can also be used for onshore wells. Completion Services will work together with Storengy to make adjustments to CSD to make it even more user friendly when the software is being used for onshore wells".
