Group head for oil, gas & petrochemical

The substantial investments being made in the UK oil and gas arena is driving the need for qualified electrical resources that can safely, competently and efficiently ensure these projects come on stream rapidly.

"This is an ideal opportunity for ABB to cater to this demand in growth by supporting various customers in executing their projects successfully,” says Karamongikar. "Traditionally customers adopted a piece meal purchase approach. However this huge spurt in growth means that finding good quality resources has become a constraint which is jeopardising the ability of EPCs and customers to deliver quality projects on time. ABB can now act as a single stop shop. With the electrical systems group in place and already well-established ICSS, telecoms and service teams, ABB can now offer complete integrated solutions in power and automation for the oil, gas and petrochemical industry.”
