UTEC, one of the world’s largest independent survey companies, has made significant expansion of the US team serving Gulf Coast clients.

The Houma-based Industrial Measurement/Dimensional Control group has benefited from the addition of 3 dimensional control surveyors, led by IMDC supervisor Greg Carlos. The experienced team provides IMDC, metrology and 3D laser scanning to UTEC’s Gulf Coast clients.

Commenting on the news, Greg Carlos said: “Having local support for UTEC clients in the eastern Gulf of Mexico region is key to providing the high level of service required. Being part of a well-established services group that focuses on construction support, QC and inspection services for the client is a great opportunity.

“The group in Houma has been working together for a number of years and having the ability to keep the team together by joining UTEC is a huge plus. It gives us the ability to continue to provide services to existing clients on the Gulf Coast, and access to IMDC staff from other UTEC offices will be important in growing the service line within the region.”

UTEC VP of Measurement Technology, Mark Klusza, added: “With the addition of a full metrology and 3D scanning division in Houma, we now have one of the largest full service metrology services companies supplying services to the oil and gas industry in key locations around the world.”
