Optical Metrology Services Ltd appoints sales agent for Brazil

31 May 2011

Specialist pipe measurement technology company for the oil and gas industry, Optical Metrology Services (OMS) Ltd, has appointed Nortech as its sales agent for Brazil. Established in 1999 and based in Rio de Janeiro, Nortech is a provider of innovative calibration and leak detection products and services to the natural gas, petroleum and power generation industries.

Adriano Camino, Managing Director at Nortech commented on the new agreement: “Nortech has very quickly established a reputation for partnering only with those companies who are seen as market leaders in their industry sector. With OMS’ expertise in oil and gas pipe measurement, combined with Nortech’s experience in providing pipeline leak detection systems and pressure monitoring of natural gas pipelines, our agreement makes complete sense and should create some very interesting synergies.” OMS is currently providing services for two projects in Brazil, the first for Petrobras on one of its onshore pipeline projects, the other working for Subsea 7 on its offshore P55 project. Nortech, on the other hand, secured its first contract with Petrobras in 2010 for the provision of leak detection services on natural gas projects.

Hugh Davies, Director of Client Solutions at OMS commented: “Having a local agent in Brazil will help OMS to secure more business from what is fast becoming a key growth area in the international oil and gas market.”
