Aberdeenshire’s J+S Subsea has opened the doors of a new facility as it targets growth and looks to become a credible competitor to tier one North Sea suppliers.
The business has upped sticks from its base in Kintore and moved to Holland House in Pitmedden Road, Dyce. The new premises offers increased space as the firm looks to expand its offering and create new jobs.
The bread and butter of J+S Subsea’s business is recycling old infrastructure for North Sea assets to redeploy on operating fields to prolong life or assist with decommissioning.
By doing this, operators can save cash and reduce carbon emissions, the firm’s managing director Phil Reid told Energy Voice.
By deploying equipment from what the firm refers to as its “legacy locker” of used and refurbished subsea trees, control systems and other machinery, clients are able to reduce emissions not to mention speed up work scopes
One client of J+S Subsea faced a nine-month wait for new kit to be delivered and installed but found a better solution in what J&S had to offer.
“We had something similar in the legacy locker, not exactly what they needed but enough of us to get the attention of the client,” said Reid.
“So, they awarded us the scope and 76% of that was reused, only 8% went to waste and there was a 2.3 ton carbon saving versus buying brand new.”
