Enerpro, an offshore project management and construction specialist, has reaffirmed its commitment to Aberdeen with a significant investment.
The company has relocated its headquarters to the city and invested £2 million in new premises in Aberdeen’s west end. This move also includes the creation of over 20 new positions, including two management roles.
Managing Director, Mr Wade, explains the strategy behind the company’s investment: “Over the last 24 months Enerpro has tripled its turnover – much of which can be attributed to our activity in the North Sea. In itself, that illustrates the significant potential for our company within the UKCS as we work with our clients to address the energy trilemma, which of course includes supporting their decarbonisation strategies.”
The new investment demonstrates Enerpro’s confidence in the future of the North Sea oil and gas industry, particularly with a focus on drilling rig upgrades for both mobile offshore drilling units (MODUs) and fixed offshore platforms.
Mr Wade concludes: “The move to our new HQ in Aberdeen reflects our desire to invest in what we very clearly see as the on-going energy capital of Europe. The majority of our North Sea clients are here, the skills are here, and at the core of all we want to achieve is a strong socio-economic plan which reinvests in Aberdeen by hiring locally and encouraging the next generation into this industry.”
Enerpro’s expansion in Aberdeen strengthens the city’s position as a global hub for the offshore energy sector. This move signifies a vote of confidence in the city’s skilled workforce and future economic prospects.
