EnerMech Qatar LLC has been awarded a multi-million pound three year call-off contract with Dolphin Energy Limited.
Mechanical engineering company EnerMech, which has bases across the eastern hemisphere, will provide nitrogen purging and leak testing on Dolphin Energy’s onshore and offshore facilities in Qatar.

EnerMech will supply nitrogen, helium trace vaporisers, hoses, tools and associated equipment and specialist personnel, which will be mobilised from Qatar, UAE, Singapore and the UK to service the contract.
Charlie Topp, EnerMech’s regional director for the Middle East, said: “We have worked with Dolphin Energy in the past, providing training services, and we are delighted to be able extend this relationship.
“We have made a significant investment in PPU equipment and in recruiting the best personnel working in that sector, and we believe the Dolphin contract will pave the way for similar workscopes in the Middle East region.
“EnerMech is committed to developing a strong physical presence in the Middle East and in addition to building a new £3 million facility in Dubai we are also in the process of establishing a new base in Qatar which will enhance the services we currently offer to clients.”
