ABERDEEN, UK -- GDF SUEZ is establishing its UK Exploration and Production (E&P) operational center in Aberdeen.

The company has secured a 10-year lease for an office in the city’s Union Plaza development, and has appointed Rob Buchan as UK E&P operations manager and GM of the company’s UK E&P operational center in the city.

The headquarters for the company’s UK E&P division remains in London.

“This is a natural step in the evolution of our business in the UK,” says Rene Montaz, MD of GDF SUEZ UK E&P. “Aberdeen is viewed as the oil and gas capital of Europe and it’s important for our UK North Sea operations team to be located there to support our ambitions for industry integration and meet the procurement and technical demands of operational activity.”
