Flexlife, an oil and gas industry specialist in subsea project and integrity management, has seen great success at its Newcastle base just six months after opening.

The company has taken on 20 members of staff including engineers, planners, designers, quality assurance and contract specialists at its Baltic Place offices.

That number is expected to double in the coming 12 months due to increasing demand for the wide range of subsea project and integrity management services being offered.

Andrew Lake, Director of Operations in Newcastle, said: “It has been an unbelievable six months with work being completed for major clients in key oil and gas regions around the globe and the business unit already making a profit.

“The team has undertaken a number of diverse projects including a flexlible pipe project in the Irish Sea, managing a pipeline investigation in South Africa and a range of asset/pipe integrity management projects in locations including the US, Norway, Angola and Ghana.
