Scottish oilfield specialist Glacier Energy Services said yesterday it had opened its first international base, in Singapore.
The company added the move represented an investment of £250,000 in office, workshop and warehouse facilities to support growth across the Asia-Pacific region.
Glacier, which also has operations in Aberdeen, Glasgow and the north-east of England, is targeting turnover of £3million from the new branch in its first year of business.
The group’s client base in the Asia-Pacific region includes Bredero Shaw, Cameron, Wasco, Oilstates, FMC, Technip, Franks International, FTV Proclad and Saipem.
Assets from other Glacier businesses are being stockpiled in Singapore, ready for mobilisation across the region.
