Award-winning JBS Group is showcasing its patented technology and engineering solutions at Offshore Europe.
The Peterhead firm is exhibiting as part of the Scottish Development International (SDI) stand on 2L40, as the highly regarded energy exhibition celebrates its 50th year. SDI partners with companies such as JBS to support global growth and entry into new markets.
More than 800 exhibitors and 38,000 visitors are expected at Offshore Europe, which takes place at P&J Live in Aberdeen (Tuesday, September 5 to Friday, September 8).
JBS manufactures and supplies dual drive screw conveyors to energy service firms for operations in the UK, Europe, Brazil, USA, South-East Asia and the Middle East. This forms part of four key JBS service propositions – screw conveyors, subsea excavation, engineering and fabrication and blast containment solutions.
JBS has seen increased demand for its patented Sea Axe technology, which enables fast, large-scale mass flow subsea excavation. The product is manufactured at its Peterhead base. Sea Axe is the most environmentally friendly system of its type on the market with a small spread in comparison to competitor products minimising the need for deck space. Another benefit is that it can be safely deployed from a vessel’s A-frame or crane.
Sea Axe can be used for a series of projects, including pipe/cable projects; seabed preparation; salvage and recovery; inspection, maintenance and repair, decommissioning, power plant outlet pipes; unexploded ordnance clearing; harbour clearance; subsea and windfarm structure projects.
JBS delivers fabrication projects for operators and energy service firms. Work has included flying lead deployment frames and several other large-scale fabrication workscopes for long-standing clients.
In addition, JBS agreed deals with a series of companies in the energy and space sectors for its blast containment products, where patented fabrics are used for ballistic, blast, fire and arc flash protection. These contracts are with clients in the UK, US, Europe and Africa. JBS has solutions engineered specifically for high-pressure testing for blast protection on rigs.
Jo McIntosh, sales and marketing director at JBS, said: “Offshore Europe is an important exhibition for us and a great opportunity to showcase our broad range of innovative solutions. We have ambitious plans for UK and international growth and this exhibition will help us to achieve those goals.”
More than 60% of JBS Group’s sales come from international markets, with the firm trading in over 80 countries – a key factor in its success in the Going Global category at the 2023 Northern Star Business Awards in Aberdeen. The awards and organised by Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce.
JBS is based at South View, Dales Industrial Estate, Peterhead.
