This year has brought some unexpected surprises and challenges for many industries including oil and gas. The global economic downturn we are experiencing as a result of Covid-19 has had some potentially long-term effects on the industry and the need for diversification has never been more apparent. As a company who began our diversification a number of years ago, not only is it good for the environment, it’s also good for business.

Matthew Laing has been promoted to UK Business Development Manager. The role will see him lead BD initiatives throughout the UK, manage key client relationships and ensure that the Cathie philosophy is delivered at the pre-award stage.

Cathie and Global Maritime are joining forces to provide integrated Leg Penetration Assessment (LPA) and Site Specific Assessment (SSA) services for jack-up operations.

COVID-19’s impact is felt throughout our industry. At Cathie, we’re equipped and accepting of the challenges this brings. Thanks to our preparation, we remain busy with both new and existing projects and we’re working hard to minimise any impact to our clients’ projects.
