AnTech, a specialist oil and gas firm that provides directional coiled tubing drilling (DCTD), is set to expand its UK premises in Exeter, UK.

Due to recent and ongoing expansion, the firm has more than doubled its workshop and office footprint for its DCTD service division by over 9000 sq ft, said a statement.

The UK expansion follows on from a successful year of growth, including the appointment of an agent in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain and the launch of a Houston office, which has increased AnTech’s global support for its customers, it said.

Founded in 1992, AnTech operates globally across two divisions, providing DCTD services and permanent completion products supported by specialist training.

Its coiled tubing drilling service division delivers cost effective directional drilling services to customers, utilising AnTech’s proprietary drilling tools, teams and systems, while the products division is heavily focused on meeting the highest industry standards in the completions market.

Toni Miszewski, managing director, said: “We are delighted to be expanding our facilities so substantially. This enables us to focus on developing our product, particularly our service offering, which supports clients by increasing production from depleted wells using DCTD technology. As we continue to expand globally in key regions, it is vital to also continue our strategic growth plans in the UK.

“AnTech has been focusing on growth within the Americas and Middle East, as well as Europe. Our team has doubled in the last year and demand for our range of patented products, wellhead equipment and state-of-the-art DCTD equipment continues to increase.”

Stratton Creber Commercial Property Consultants acted for the landlords of the units which AnTech has acquired.

Andrew Hosking, company director, said: “Securing an international company as a tenant is a testament to the quality of the commercial space on offer and underpins our position as the leading provider of practical and innovative solutions in the commercial property sector.

“We are particularly pleased to have assisted AnTech in its expansion to these high quality, modern workshop and office premises, which will act as a base for further local and international growth.” - TradeArabia News Service
