Interventek wins eight-figure deal with Baker Hughes

Subsea technology firm Interventek, of Aberdeen, has clinched an eight-figure deal to supply equipment to US energy service giant Baker Hughes.
Interventek said the contract would safeguard nine employees’ jobs in the north-east, where it has a headcount in excess of 30.
Interventek’s Revolution valve technology will be incorporated within Baker Hughes’ subsea systems.
The agreement also covers training, inspection, testing, maintenance and deployment of the technology.

Interventek designs, assembles and tests its gear, but component manufacturing is subcontracted out.
About 6o% of the manufacturing takes place in the north-east of Scotland, with the rest done elsewhere in the UK.
Managing director Gavin Cowie said: “We believe this contract marks the start of an exciting long-term partnership with Baker Hughes. We aim to support Baker Hughes expand their offering with technology that offers enhanced environmental and safety performance. With a pipeline of innovative new technology, Interventek is keen to establish partnerships with forward-thinking subsea service providers.”
Interventek, backed by FrontRow Energy Technology Group, recently relocated to the AB Z Business Park in Dyce, from Wellheads Crescent. The move coincided with a run of contract wins. In February, the firm said new business secured over the past year was worth more than £ 10m.
