ABERDEEN-based well maintenance and integrity services business Well-Centric Oilfield Services is looking to significantly expand its footprint in the oil and gas sector with an ambitious North Sea and international strategy to deliver 30% growth year on year.

The company, which is projecting a turnover of £5.5million this year, is looking to maintain last year’s growth rate in the North Sea and increase its turnover to £12million by 2017-18.

In line with the expansion, Well-Centric expects to more than double its workforce to 70 employees within the same period, creating new opportunities for development and recruitment.

Underpinning the move is the appointment of Chris Mawtus, to the position of chief executive officer. Mawtus has held a number of senior roles, including being former chief operating officer of Expro International.
