EV was awarded the Export Achievement accolade at the 28th Offshore Achievement Awards at a ceremony in Aberdeen.

EV, the market leader in downhole video applications for the oil and gas industry, won for its accomplishments in international activity following continued global growth and expanding from a solely UK-based company three years ago to one that currently operates in 12 countries.

Francis Neill, EV chief executive, said: “We are honoured to receive this award, and proud that our international bases and experience have been recognised. We have focussed on a path of sustained growth to reach this level of internationalisation and have done extensive research into all of the markets we’ve entered to ensure superior service and a lasting relationship with our regional client base.”

EV’s first international target was the Gulf of Mexico, which it entered in 2010. The company then went on to establish itself in Canada and the US before entering South East Asia, the Middle East and Australia. The company currently has 17 worldwide bases and has recently opened its doors in India and Indonesia, with Nigeria identified as a target in coming months.

Neill continued: “Our innovative technology is being rapidly adopted by operators around the world to help them diagnose problems in their wellbore. We continue to grow in our established markets and enter new markets with clients requesting our services based on our responsiveness, technology and outstanding service quality.”
