Aban Offshore (AOL),formerly known as Aban Loyd Chiles Offshore Ltd.,  the Aban Group company was established by late M A Abraham in 1986 when Indian entrepreneurs were encouraged to provide offshore drilling services to the Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) to meet the growing needs of a vibrant economy. AOL launched its first contract drilling service to the ONGC in 1987 with two modern jack-up drilling rigs acquired from the USA.

Aban Offshore is India’s largest drilling entity in the private sector offering world class drilling and other services. Aban Offshore is a company which provides oil field services for offshore exploration and production of  hydrocarbons to the oil industry in India and abroad.

The ABAN Group was born as a small engineering firm in Chennai, The Group took giant strides into newer arenas of operation like the execution of high-pressure systems and cross-country pipelines for refineries and fertilizer and petrochemical industries.
