Fabricom Offshore Services’s North Sea activity will include design and detailed engineering, maintenance and modification work to terminals and platforms, field decommissioning work in the North Sea, and providing on and offshore services for international companies such as BP, Shell, BG, Total and ConocoPhillips and new entrants into the industry.
The company’s decision to locate the business in Newcastle was secured by a GBP1.6 million selective finance for investment grant from One NorthEast. The agency’s sector team worked with the engineering firm over a period of several months, looking at the region’s supply chain to link Fabricom to the relevant regional partners.
Michel Hanson, president of Fabricom, said: This is part of ongoing efforts by the Fabricom Oil & Gas operational unit to enhance our service offering to oil and gas companies around the North Sea region and strengthen our position as a provider of both innovative and complete solutions across the oil and gas value chain.
