Mirage Machines, an Acteon Company, has invested in the launch of a subsea-focused engineering research and development subsidiary for North America in Houston.
Mirage Subsea has been established with an initial staff of five operating from an engineering workshop and stores facility covering 10,000sq ft. It will deliver Mirage Machines' on-site machining technology, including subsea diamond wire cutting machines and hot-tapping equipment, along with ROV tooling and solutions to clients across the region, focused on the Gulf of Mexico.
The base, located on Jackrabbit Road in the northwest of the city, will also provide technologies for refineries and petrochemical plants onshore, including flange-facing, milling and pipecutting equipment.
Mirage Subsea has already secured deals with a major oil and gas operator in the Gulf of Mexico, with diamond wire saws delivered for use in flow line works.
Mirage has already extended itsDerby, UK headquarters and manufacturing and engineering facilities.
