Hilong brings Brunei oilfield experience to Gastech 2026 in Bangkok
Hilong Group of Companies is in Bangkok for Gastech 2026 as the global energy industry gathers to discuss the technologies, services and investment shaping the next phase of gas and energy development.
Hilong is a Hong Kong-listed group specialising in oilfield equipment, integrated oilfield services and offshore engineering. Headquartered in Shanghai, the company has built an international presence spanning production bases, service operations and business branches across multiple energy markets.
Brunei puts the regional story into focus
Its international footprint includes Brunei, where Hilong Oil Service SDN BHD operates from Kuala Belait. The company's wider oilfield service business covers drilling and workover, managed pressure drilling, cementing, directional drilling, well completion and testing, coiled tubing and other technical services.
Hilong has also worked in Brunei on drilling activity for Brunei Shell Petroleum, giving the company direct operational experience in one of Southeast Asia's established upstream energy markets.
From drilling to digital operations
The company has been expanding its focus beyond conventional drilling services into digital and intelligent oilfield operations. Its offering includes well and station management platforms, together with monitoring and inspection technology for pipelines, valve chambers and energy facilities.
That combination of field capability and digital operations reflects a wider theme visible across Gastech this year: established oilfield service companies are increasingly being asked to deliver not only equipment and manpower, but better data, faster decisions and more efficient operations.
Why it matters at Gastech
Gastech brings operators, contractors, technology providers and decision-makers together from across the international energy sector. Hilong's presence highlights both the increasingly international nature of oilfield services in Southeast Asia and the continuing importance of Brunei within the region's upstream industry.
For a company already delivering services on the ground in the region, Bangkok is an opportunity to strengthen relationships, explore new technology and bring those operational conversations to a much wider international audience.
