New CEO for
Socotherm
PIPELINE coatings specialist Socotherm Group has appointed
Paul DeWeese as chief executive officer.
Mr DeWeese has worked extensively in the area of oilfield services
and supplies, initially with Cameron Compression Services (Cooper
Cameron), and subsequently with CRC-Evans International, where
he was president of the automatic welding division, a supplier to the
global pipeline industry.
The controlling shareholders and board members of Socotherm
expressed strong enthusiasm with the appointment of Mr
DeWeese. Diego Alvarez-Demalde of Sophia Capital said, “Paul’s
leadership skills and experience in the sector will be critical as we
increase further our focus on technology and the competitiveness
of our customers.” Tighe Noonan of 4D Global Energy stated, “We
are confident that his in-depth knowledge of the global pipeline
marketplace and strong experience in international sales and
manufacturing will help lead Socotherm group through a new
phase of growth and technical innovation building on its worldwide
presence and multicultural identity.”
Socotherm’s strategy is to become the world leader in high
technology coating, including all special coatings such as
thermal insulation and concrete coating for the off shore market.
Additionally, Socotherm intends to be the best coating strategic
partner and supplier for the leading oil and gas companies, pipe
laying contractors and steel pipe producers.

firm relocates
ENTECH is committed to reinvesting into every aspect of its
business from staff training to state-of-the-art machinery. This,
coupled with a record of high quality product manufacture and
efficient and personal service, has ensured the company’s
managed and sustainable expansion. The success has paved the
way for 2012, which sees its most recent milestone achieved.
Having outgrown its premises the business decided to relocate
to a significantly larger, purpose-built unit. The new site, situated at
the Blackpool, UK end of the M55 motorway, has the advantage of
providing increased accessibility to both customers and suppliers.
The move also offers opportunities for the acquisition of additional
machinery, the recruitment of more apprentices and ultimately a
substantial increase in the volume of work Entech is able to process.
