Business
Velesto Energy Berhad is a Malaysia-based multinational provider of drilling and related services to the upstream oil and gas industry. The company owns and operates a fleet of six premium jack-up drilling rigs, including the NAGA series (NAGA 4, NAGA 5, NAGA 6, NAGA 7 and NAGA 8), capable of operating in water depths up to 400 feet and drilling to depths of 30,000 feet; two hydraulic workover units offering re-completion, intervention and plug & abandonment services; and oilfield services encompassing threading, inspection and repair of oil country tubular goods with a focus on premium connections, conducted in Tianjin, China. It also provides integrated drilling and workover services, such as integrated rig, drilling and completion (i-RDC) contracts, and operates the Velesto Drilling Academy for technical training of oil and gas professionals. Founded in 1988 and headquartered at Plaza Sentral in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Velesto operates primarily in Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines and Sarawak offshore regions, serving local and international oil companies such as PETRONAS, PTTEP, Hess, Phu Quoc Petroleum Operating Company (PQPOC) and PC Ketapang II Ltd. In recent developments, Velesto secured a four-year drilling contract worth US$90 million for its NAGA 8 jack-up rig from PC Ketapang II Ltd, PC North Madura II Ltd and PETRONAS North Ketapang Sdn Bhd in Indonesia, commencing July 2025 with 12 firm wells and three optional wells; awarded a contract from Phu Quoc Petroleum Operating Company for NAGA 4 to drill more than 40 wells offshore Vietnam starting in the first half of 2026, valued over US$40 million; and obtained a US$40 million drilling contract from PTTEP HK Offshore Ltd and PTTEP Sarawak Oil Ltd for NAGA 5 to drill 15 firm wells in Malaysia beginning June 2025. The company upgraded NAGA 5 and NAGA 6 with offline capabilities in 2022, implemented NOVOS automated drilling on NAGA 4 and installed Starlink internet on NAGA 4 and NAGA 8 in 2023, enhancing operational efficiency and technological integration across its fleet. These contracts strengthen fleet utilization to over 75-81% and support earnings visibility through 2028, with an order book exceeding RM1.7 billion as of early 2024.
