Frontier International Expands Offshore Bearing Rental Operations Across Multiple Markets
June 2026 —
Frontier International expanded its offshore bearing rental operations with a second customer project, building on the company’s first deepwater rental application completed in December 2025. The two projects involved different customers and operating environments, extending Frontier’s rental model across both deepwater and shallow-water applications in Asia and Europe.
Frontier delivered and executed its first deepwater rental bearing project in December 2025 for an offshore drilling operation in Asia. The project marked the first application of Frontier’s bearing technology under a rental model in a deepwater environment.
In June 2026, Frontier completed a second rental bearing project for a different customer, this time supporting shallow-water drilling operations offshore Norway.
The two projects extend Frontier’s offshore bearing activities beyond direct equipment supply and demonstrate the application of the rental model across different customers, regions, and offshore operating conditions.
The expansion also provides customers with an alternative way to access Frontier’s offshore pressure-control technology without relying solely on equipment ownership, combining equipment provision with the technical and operational support required for deployment.
Moving from the first deepwater rental project in Asia to a second customer application in Norway broadens Frontier’s offshore operating footprint and demonstrates the growing diversification of its bearing rental business across international markets.
