PSIL Recruits Global Sales Director, Expands In Middle East
Process Systems International Limited (PSIL) is expanding its global network across Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and the UAE.
PSIL designs and commissions horizontal, vertical, molten sulphur and vortex-flo pumps for national oil companies, major operators and service providers including Qatar Petroleum, TCO, Taymel, BP, Shell, Brown & Root and Read.
Its British-engineered and manufactured technologies have a minimum design-life standard of 25 years, improving efficiency while reducing costs by mitigating the need for regular and expensive refurbishment and replacement programmes.
The Northampton, UK-headquartered company has appointed experienced global business development professional Darren Cowley as sales director as it pushes for significant growth in the region by establishing new distribution agency agreements.
Cowley, a mechanical engineer and former draughtsman, has more than 20 years' experience managing client project sales and establishing joint ventures across the Caspian and Middle East, with companies including Clyde Union Pumps, Hayward Tyler and Knowsley SK.
PSIL managing director, Mark Hodgkins, said: "British engineering design and manufacturing is a highly sought-after commodity for oil and gas operators and refineries in the Middle East – we are experiencing continuously rising demand across the region.
"Securing new agency agreements in the key markets of Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and the UAE is crucial to our ability to distribute our custom-designed pumps to national oil companies, operators and refinery owners. Our network has widened significantly in the last decade and that growth shows absolutely no sign of slowing.
"Bringing Darren on board is a major boost for the business, he has huge experience of the region and understands exactly what our clients requirements are – his work alongside our technical director Miles Dilkes means we are able to deliver a more efficient service to our customers from initial request to product delivery."
PSIL's assemblies are used in onshore and offshore oil and gas; heavy chemical and petrochemical; molten sulphur, salts and metals; metal picking and treatment; phosphorous, titanium tetrachloride and dioxide, and fertilizers.
Certified to ISO 9001/2000 and API610 standards, PSIL’s products are built to meet the most exacting QHSE requirements of operators, and their assets, in every global region. The company specialises in delivering for projects with high levels of contract specific documentation, certification and inspection.
