Founder Director
Million Barrels Ltd specialize in provinding the following integrated services to our clients

Murtaza performed completion screen analysis and planning for a ground-breaking reinjection trial for Lilac’s lithium brine operations in Argentina.
He provided a quick response to any issues and practical solutions given the tight budget limits. Best wishes for the future and happy to recommend for any completions / PT work!

Murtaza did a fantastic job leading an intelligent well project in Mozambique for Sasol; the first such well in the basin so it was challenging to carry it through the various internal gates. It resulted in a world-first 9-zone all-electric completion, delivered and tested as per plan. It was such a complicated engineering, planning and installation task, with so many potential failure modes, that it required among other things an FMECA which Murtaza organized perfectly.
