WELL INTERVATION SPECIALISTS WELLPRO GROUP LAUNCHED IN ABERDEEN
Wellpro Group, a new well intervention start-up, expects to create seven jobs within its first year of trading after announcing its move to premises in the Granite City.
The business, which is primarily focused on well intervention and thru tubing tools, has been established to meet the demand for innovative solutions within the well intervention market in the UK and European markets as well as other major operating locations globally.
The three founding members of the business together have more than 75 years’ experience in the oil and gas industry.
CEO Jim Thomson and Technical Director Scott Fraser were formerly Managing Director and UK Manager respectively at Wellvention Ltd. Prior to its sale to ALS. Meanwhile, Operations Director Grant Forsyth was most recently Regional Manager at Hunting Energy.
Wellpro Group is based at 5,750 sq. ft office and workshop space on Auchmill Road, Aberdeen which provides a platform to expand the business and the existing team – with the firm actively recruiting for several key positions.
Within its first weeks of trading, the company has held positive discussions with operators and service companies while it is also currently in the process of a significant investment in new equipment.
With a commendable reputation in the sector, the founders are confident of building a global business with focus on technical leadership and delivering best in class products and service.
Thru tubing technology has experienced significant growth in the oil and gas industry over recent years as companies seek faster, safer and more cost-effective methods to reenter and work on wells.
The business is in the process of setting up an integrated QHSE management system and currently working towards ISO9001:2015 accreditation.
