EV grows global footprint across the US, Scandinavia and Far EastFast evolving oil and gas camera specialist EV, whose ground breaking technology is being used to obtain pictures in remote and challenging environments such as down wellbores and inside pipelines, has bolstered its global position by expanding its reach across the US, Scandinavia and the Far East. In order to enhance the company’s rapid response to its growing customer base in the United States, EV has established its regional headquarters in Houston’s energy corridor. New operational bases have also been set up in Oklahoma, Texas and Colorado to complement EV’s existing operational base in Lafayette, Louisiana, which services the Gulf of Mexico. An additional base in West Virginia is due to be opened shortly.
EV has appointed Troy Sutherlin, who has over 18 year’s expertise in wellbore video logging, as its US Land Manager to oversee the new network of operations while regional managers have been appointed to each of the Oklahoma, Texas and Colorado bases.
In Scandinavia, EV has established a partnership with a major company in Norway and Denmark which is already benefiting customers with rapid response from EV’s suite of electric line, slickline, coil tubing and drill pipe cameras.
Meanwhile, in the Far East, a new operational base in Malaysia has recently been opened in conjunction with Highland Energy Partners. Operations have already commenced in the South East Asia region.
EV has further plans in place to continue its rapid geographical expansion based on strong demand for both its industry leading downhole video technology and its innovative products for subsea and pipelines such as the company’s Neptus wireless subsea camera.
Francis Neill, EV’s CEO, said: “EV is in very exciting times. Over the last year, we have tripled our workforce and evolved from a UK company to one with truly global reach. We are now establishing further operational bases in Canada and Australia which we expect to be opened before the end of the year.
“Our strong commitment to research and development is further delivering products which are experiencing strong demand such as our coil tubing cameras.”
EV’s remote camera and video technology has saved operators significant rig time, reduced non-productive time and enabled production to be re-established quicker. An increasing number of oil and gas companies are recognising the benefits of being able to see what is happening in these challenging environments and therefore make the correct decision.
