Craig International has signed a five-year procurement contract for all Premier Oil’s maintenance and repair operations in the UK North Sea.
The contract, which could be worth up to £5 million, will see Craig International’s UK office work alongside its global network on all aspects of the procurement process – from sourcing to logistics – to ensure the most cost-effective service possible.
Craig International will supply procurement for all maintenance and repair operations to Premier Oil in the North Sea, including the Solan field.
Craig International won the competitive retender due to the company’s range of innovative e-commerce ideas and driven efficiencies which provide added value to the client.
Jill MacDonald, joint managing director of Craig International, said: “We’ve built a strong relationship with Premier Oil and securing this contract recognizes the value outsourced procurement can bring to a project. Our approach gives clients a variety of options to meet their requirements and suit their budgets.”
