Acteon Adds Deepwater Corrosion Services

Subsea services group Acteon has acquired Houston-based corrosion specialist Deepwater Corrosion Services.

According to Acteon, the addition of Deepwater’s expertise and portfolio should strengthen its integrity management abilities of critical subsea infrastructure throughout the life of a field.

Deepwater operates from facilities in the USA, the UK, Brazil, Norway and Australia. It has designed, built and installed more offshore cathodic protection systems than any other company.

“Our corrosion-control experience stretches back over 30 years,” says Jim Britton, Deepwater president and chief executive officer. “We continue to lead the way in corrosion control and offer a suite of services around the world. I am excited by the opportunity within Acteon to grow our business and to provide more integrated subsea solutions throughout the life of a field that enhance efficiency and reduce costs for our customers.”
