Intertek has secured more than GBP 5 million of new contracts for oil and gas technical inspection, training and staffing in the last six months through its North Sea Moody businesses.
Intertek acquired Moody International last year in a GBP 450 million deal. The company is currently investing GBP 15 million in new Aberdeen headquarters in Scotland for its energy services; Intertek Moody teams are among the first to move to the new premises.
The contracts include training, systems certification, technical inspection and staffing services for oil and gas operators and service companies operating in the North Sea and abroad.
Over GBP 4 million in contracts have been secured in the West of Shetland, Norway and the UK. The team is providing technical inspection, expediting and staffing services during pre-procurement auditing, on-site testing and compliance and offshore operational support in mobilisation of temporary equipment.
A further GBP 1 million of contracts have been secured in 2012 through consulting and training services including two major contracts in Russia and a worldwide contract in safety leadership and culture change being delivered on ships in Europe, the US and Asia.
Raymond Pirie, Vice President for Intertek’s global upstream business said: “Following the high profile acquisition of Moody International last year and successful integration, it is tremendous to see this success in securing international contracts and the growing demand for technical inspection, training and staffing services from the energy industry. We are creating a centre of excellence in Aberdeen and expect further growth in Intertek’s energy services in 2012.”
