Expro International Group PLC

World Oil, April, 2004

Expro International Group PLC has acquired the well tractoring business of Houston-based SmarTract Inc. The acquired business, to be called Expro Tractor Solutions, will provide downhole robotics and tractor services to the oil and gas industry worldwide. The SmarTract tractor is an electro-hydraulic crawler-type tractor that provides a method of deploying tools in high deviation and horizontal wells on wireline, providing an alternative to drill pipe and coiled tubing.

Its ability to apply force either up or down in the wellbore also makes it suitable for manipulating tubing-mounted equipment such as plugs and sliding sleeves.
