Whittaker Mexicana will offer a full range of Swire Oilfield Services DNV 2.7-1 certified units included offshore containers, baskets, waste skips and tanks to support the increased International operators drilling campaigns across Mexico.

I believe the services provided by Whittaker together with our diverse fleet of offshore container and equipment will offer our customers a streamlined service which will ultimately help increase operation efficiencies by utilizing one supplier for their cargo carrying requirements,” Mike Perera, Swire Oilfield Service North America general manager, said.
