Evotec Achieves Hat-Trick in Drilling Contracts

December 8, 2025

Evotec has secured three additional contracts for the delivery of Ex-certified FlexiLARS units (designed for operation in hazardous areas) to offshore drilling vessels. In total, five systems will be delivered with Evotec’s unique solution.

“The customer’s decision to expand to a total of five systems underscores their confidence in Evotec as a supplier and their satisfaction with the solutions already delivered. For us, this represents a strong endorsement of our ability to deliver the quality and reliability the oil and gas industry expects.” says Pål Måløy, Senior Marine Advisor at Evotec.

Evotec CORE™ is an innovative platform that integrates electric drive technology with smart control in a single system. To meet the stringent requirements of Ex-classified areas, Evotec has developed a pressurized enclosure enabling the use of our compact PM motors and frequency converters—setting a new benchmark in the market. This innovation ensures maximum uptime, enhanced operator safety, and long-term value in demanding marine operations. The solution offers seamless system integration, combined with electric drive efficiency and advanced control.

Evotec’s fully electric winch systems further reduce energy consumption and wear, while minimizing the need for hydraulics and related maintenance. The advanced CORE control system guarantees precision, safety, and reliability in every operation.

Strong Collaboration with the Customer

Over the past year, Evotec has worked in close partnership with the international oil company to develop a solution built on extensive operational experience and technical expertise. The result is a system we expect will be relevant to a broader range in the offshore segment.

“Evotec is experiencing solid growth within the subsea segment and anticipates further positive developments. Our entry into the Ex-market has considerably broadened our scope, while the acquisition of our manufacturing facility in Serbia earlier this year has reinforced our value chain, enabling us to compete for a larger share of the global market.” says Jogeir Romestrand, CEO of Evotec.
