ANALYSING THE GROWTH OF A GLOBAL ENTITY

ANALYSER SERVICES TRINIDAD LTD

Analyser Services Trinidad LTD Managing Director Indar

Boodoo was on hand to discuss his company’s success

and substantial presence, “There has been a great deal

of development,” he relates, “In 2012 a number of Norsk Analyse

shares were acquired by Addtech Life Science, a business area in the

Addtech Group,”

This added resources and additional experience to the already

hefty twenty five years worth of experience that Norsk Analyse AS

already had under its belt. What it didn’t change though was the high

level of service that the Trinidad branch provide to their customers,

“Primarily we offer sales and service or process analysers,” he tells

us, “This includes gas detection systems, sand, pig and corrosion

monitors, calibration gases, instrumentation and spare parts.”

“Highly Trained And Experienced Technicians Make The Difference”

Experience is highly valued here. Analyser Services Trinidad’s

mother company Norsk Analyse was founded in 1988 by a couple

of analytical engineers, originating from the process analyser and

system integration industry in Norway.

With more than ten years worth of experience in the marine, oil

and gas and on-shore industries NA grew to become a specialised

Process Analyser System Integrator group, with a number of sales

outlets that later evolved into service hubs to the industries.

When Analyser Services Trinidad was established on the island it

With their main office based in Tønsberg and after having expanded into international business operations through six countries, Norsk Analyser AS is proud of their unmatched analytical expertise and process knowledge of which their Trinidad offices play a crucial and indispensable role in this.

was to take advantage of the vast variety of industries to be found

there and its position as a world supplier of ammonia, methanol and

hydrocarbon commodities. But when it came to establishing the

workforce within this branch would emulate the original model of

valuing experience.

Indar explains that his company initially started off with only

three employees and has grown over the years to now employ fifteen

members of staff, spread across administration, technicians, accounts

and management, “The highly trained and experienced technicians

make all the difference,” he adds, “The quality of our services which

we are very well known for, comes directly from them and as such we

are very careful when it comes to who we employ and when someone

new comes into the company we offer in house training to ensure that

they’re of the best standard possible,”

Considering the services that Analyser Services Trinidad

offers which include service and support, training, preventative

maintenance, installation and commission of analytical systems,

pressure gauges, recorders, relief valves and other instrumentation

it’s clear why a fully functional understanding of the industry and

technology used is so vital.

“Additionally we also provide complete analyser turnkey solutions

and system integration to customers,” Indar adds.

“Full Customer Satisfaction Is Our Top Priority”

With the key customers in the offshore and onshore oil and gas

industries as well as the steel, pharmaceutical and the beverage

sectors require equipment for the continuous analysis of gas, liquid

and solids in search of the optimal operation of facilities. Increasing the

demand for efficiency and profitability involves minimising analysis

maintenance and raising standards of regularity and accuracy.

“While we aim to have the most time efficient turnaround on a

customer’s equipment,” Indar explains, “We refuse to compromise

on our quality standards. In the long term customers are more

concerned with their equipment working rather than if it arrived

exactly at a specified date.”

He goes on to explain that each application is carefully studied

and reviewed before a recommendation is proposed to a customer to

ensure that their customers are offered the best product to fulfil their

requirements. Through inter-company support within the group they

have the capabilities to offer engineering design and other support

services, “Also because our parent company offers system integration

and design, we supply field support and spares, key to sustaining the

clients equipment,”

“Our customer’s full satisfaction is our top priority,” he adds.

“Working Together Is Key”As part of a global network of businesses Analyser Services find

themselves able to draw on the various businesses working with Norsk

Analyse AS. These include renowned world class manufacturers such

as Siemens, Ametek, Applied Instrument Technologies, Teledyne,

Advanced Sensors, Hach Lange, Berthold Technologies, O’Brien and

Circor Tech amongst others.

Additionally, and importantly, the company recently completed

the local STOW Certification and now have their eyes set on becoming

ISO Certified.

“Growth, Expansion And Diversification”With the halfway point of 2014 fast approaching, 2015 is

just around the next bend and following a long standing trend of

continuous improvement, systematic growth and the strategic

adoption and development of new technologies Analyser Services

Trinidad LTD has a lot to look forward to in the future.

“As we move forward in 2014/2015 we are in the process of

acquiring new facilities and expanding our services further,” Indar

explains, “We are planning to move into the areas of environmental

monitoring, training and eventually manufacturing of sample

conditioning systems. This is in accordance not only with industry

trends to keep up with competition but also as a response to our

client’s needs which keeps us ahead of them too.”

He goes on to add that their parent company Norsk Analayse AS is

actively pursuing installation of CEMs on ships in the marine industry

which will include cruise ships, ensuring compliance with MARPOL

Annex VI.

“To support this move into the industry Analyser Services, due to

our strategic location in the English speaking Caribbean, will be the

service support centre for the Caribbean region and maintain our own

growth, expansion and diversification as a business,” Indar concludes.
