Bibby Offshore’s Houston-based division, Bibby Subsea, has announced the investment in a new office and staff appointment as a result of continued growth in the region.

The new premises, due for completion in November 2014, consist of a 6,300 sq. ft. office space and 2,000 sq. ft. warehouse and workshop area, which will allow for further team expansion. A recruitment drive is planned to increase the number of Bibby Subsea staff in the region by more than 70, both onshore and offshore, throughout 2015.

Since its inception in August 2013, Bibby Subsea has experienced significant client demand for its service offering, which continues to increase across North America, the company said. The new purpose-built facility, located in the Houston Energy Corridor, is set to strengthen the business’s presence and enhance its on-the-ground support for clients in the region.

Andrew Duncan, President and Managing Director of Bibby Subsea, said, “The new office is located in the heart of the Energy Corridor, a hub for oil and gas operations in Houston, providing an ideal position to deliver our wide range of subsea capabilities to the North American market.”

Robert Richmond has been appointed as Vessel Operations/Project Manager to help facilitate this growth, bringing to the business 33 years’ experience within the marine and subsea industries. For the last six years Robert has been working for a major international subsea company based in Houston, where laterally he was Subsea Operations Director. With a career that has seen him work across the world, Robert will help manage and develop Bibby Subsea’s operational capability.

Duncan continued, “The opening of a new office and Rob’s appointment are exciting new developments, allowing for future growth and team expansion. Following a number of successful contract wins in the region, we are expanding rapidly and have outgrown our current Houston facility.

Bibby Subsea and Bibby Offshore has grown from 10 employees in 2003 to now employing more than 1,450 people onshore and offshore worldwide, with offices in Aberdeen, Liverpool, Newcastle, Singapore, Trinidad, Houston and Norway. The company has an international fleet of seven subsea support vessels and 17 ROVs, and will continue to add to its fleet to meet demand.
