Borehole geophysics venture Robertson Geo has opened a new headquarters in North Wales as it seeks to double its headcount and drive revenues.

Its new 20,500 square-foot facility features a purpose-built manufacturing facility, modern offices, a training hub, and a calibration centre. The business customers base spans the renewables, geotechnical, offshore wind, mining, energy, and environmental sectors.

Roberston Geo which plans to double its existing headcount of to more than 100 over the next few years, is majority-owned by Japanese venture Oyo Corporation. Latest revenues are up around 20% on the year.

The firm plans to expand further within the park to accommodate its growing services team.

Managing director Simon Garantini said: “It’s emotional leaving our previous premises after more than 45 years, but this move marks the start of an exciting new chapter.

“The new headquarters gives us the space and facilities to realise our ambitions, collaborate more effectively, and continue innovating at the forefront of our industry.

“Our team has grown, international demand is increasing — especially in the US and Asia — and we’re now well-positioned to steadily double both our headcount and sales revenue.”
