Go East... then West

Having visited customers in Aberdeen and Russia in March, then Norway in April, Operations Director John Barnett packed his bags again in May for another series of customer visits. This time he headed into the sunset and off to USA. The 10 day trip covered more than 3000 miles visiting Lafayette, Houston, Odessa, Dallas and California.

Despite the strength of sterling against the dollar our business in the USA is expanding with new customers showing particular interest in Quick Tip and our range of high quality inserts for fishing tools. In addition to visiting the oilfield workshops of existing customers, John met with senior management in Houston and Dallas, as well as exploring new opportunities for business in California.
