The Engineering Business
The Engineering Business (EB), a specialist design, engineering and construction company based in the U.K., has thrived with the recent expansion in offshore oil & gas projects globally, dubbed one of the fasted growing companies in northeast England. It was recently announced that the company was acquired by IHC Merwede. MTR recently caught up with Dr. Tony Trapp, EB's Managing Director. EB was founded in April 1997 by a four-man team of engineers led by managing director, Dr. Tony Trapp. Today EB is a team of 150 people (predominantly graduate professional engineers) and has a current order book approaching $120 million to be delivered to the offshore industry over the course of the next three years. EB specializes in designing, building and supplying, engineering solutions for the offshore oil and gas, submarine telecom, defence and offshore renewables industries, while IHC Merwede is a leader in the construction of specialist dredging equipment and complex custom-built offshore vessels.
