MOGE had initially launched a public invitation for interested parties to submit a Letter of Expression of Interest (“LEOI“) for a Joint Venture in Onshore Drilling Services with MOGE in June 2014. MOGE is now launching this Request for Proposal (“RfP“) in the form of an open tender to interested parties, including but not limited to LEOI respondents from the LEOI exercise conducted in June 2014, to submit a response to this Request for Proposal (the “Application“). In this context, MOGE intends to select a suitable internationally proven drilling services company as the “Joint Venture Partner” through a step-by-step process: Phase 1: Request for Proposal; Phase 2: Evaluation Process; and Phase 3: Negotiations and Signing.
