| Amec acquires qedi UK-based engineering services company Amec announces that it has acquired qedi, a market-leading project delivery company, focused on delivering specialist completion and commissioning services for major projects in the oil and gas industry. Headquartered in Aberdeen, qedi employs more than 350 professionals who provide 'technical integrity' project delivery services to international oil companies (IOCs) in the UK, Gulf of Mexico, Middle East, the Caspian and Australia. Managing the technical integrity of the completion and commissioning phase is critical in ensuring any major project is delivered satisfactorily and the facility meets the operating criteria for which it was designed. With international capital expenditure in the oil industry expected to rise by 12 percent in 2011 to over $360 billion, the acquisition of qedi will provide Amec with the technical capability to provide specialist integrity services to major oil and gas customers throughout the life of their projects. qedi's customers include major IOCs, two of whom have global agreements with qedi for the provision of technical services, including their specialist Go Technology completions and commissioning management software. write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Construction News :: home page |
