HOUSTON -- GE Oil & Gas has moved into a new office building in Houston, Texas. The new GE Oil & Gas building is the first site to house all GE Oil & Gas businesses at one location, since the acquisition of PII Pipeline Solutions in 2002, VetcoGray in 2007, and Hydril Pressure Control in 2008.

Almost 500 employees from sales, engineering, commercial operations, and other supporting functions have co-located to the new office building. This regional headquarters will support all segments of the oil and gas industry – from drilling and completion to production, LNG, pipeline, refining, and petrochemicals. In addition to the new office building, GE Oil & Gas also has three manufacturing plants and two service centers in the Houston area. In total, GE Oil & Gas employs more than 2,000 people in the Houston area.

Building facilities include an auditorium, training and meeting rooms, café, and a TelePresence room that uses the latest technology to enable virtual meetings around the globe.
