We worked with them throughout the event, set up media interviews and arranged for Scottish Minister for Energy, Enterprise and Tourism, Fergus Ewing, to visit their exhibition stand which FoundOcean shared with BASF Construction Chemicals.
The Minister congratulated both companies on the recent Gwynt Y Môr Offshore Wind Farm Limited contract win and at the same time met with the representatives of RWE, the wind farm owner.

Scottish Minister for Energy opens FoundOcean’s Livingston facility
Tuesday, 3rd April 2012 at 7:59pm
The Think Tank headed to Livingston, Scotland last week to help with the official opening ceremony of FoundOcean’s newly expanded Offshore Service Base. The event was held to celebrate FoundOcean’s achievements and the Scottish Minister for Energy, Enterprise and Tourism, Fergus Ewing, was guest of honour. He gave a passionate and humorous speech to the delight of the guests – in spite of an influx of overhead aircraft seemingly trying to drown out his voice!
While stressing the need for businesses like FoundOcean to be able to transfer their technologies, services and products between industry sectors, Fergus also remarked that he had come a long way since the first opening ceremony where he was guest of honour, at a sewage works 12 years ago!
The event also included guided tours around the facilities with FoundOcean’s offshore personnel explaining the function of equipment to the guests – representatives of offshore oil and gas, and renewables companies, industry bodies, media and even the RNLI.
FoundOcean is the global leader in subsea and offshore grouting, which to translate into layman’s terms means fixing offshore structures like oil and gas platforms and wind farms to the sea bed.
The opening ceremony was a huge success and with more offshore projects in the pipeline than ever before the future looks bright for FoundOcean. The company is celebrating doubling its revenue and personnel since 2009.
