We have enjoyed a lot of success since our beginnings as a small research team in 1958. Now our products, services and innovations span the globe, helping businesses operate more safely, more efficiently and saving them money. Here are just some of our major milestones over the last 60 years.
An expert team of scientists is brought together to research the beneficial application of ionising radiation in process chemical plants.
The first fixed nucleonic level instrument is developed and installed. A rapid evolution of radioisotope techniques for process troubleshooting and optimisation follows.
To support our tracer technology, a 23KW TRIGA nuclear reactor receives investment. A commercial business unit is established to supply specialist diagnostic services and instruments worldwide.
An increased demand for process diagnostic services to the North Sea offshore oil and gas industry leads to the opening of a new office in Aberdeen, UK.
Tracer technologies are developed to allow oil companies to characterise fluid flows in reservoirs and inside production wells.
Major overseas expansion begins with offices opening in the Americas, Asia, Australia, Caspian, Europe and Middle East.
Fuel marker technology is developed and launched. A contract to help Brazilian government combat national fuel adulteration crime is won. The business unit is acquired by Johnson Matthey to enhance existing catalyst technology.
The Profiler™, a revolutionary new instrument for interface measurement and control on complex separation systems, wins the Queens Award for Enterprise.
We win a Queen’s Award for Enterprise in the International Trade category, recognising the significant growth in sales revenue. A new range of radiation monitors is launched.
The subsea Profiler™ instrumentation system is commissioned for Statoil’s Tordis Module. It’s the world’s first subsea oil and gas production facility.
We are awarded with the Queen’s Award for Innovation for the world’s first intrinsically safe radiation monitor.
DiscoveryTM, the world’s first subsea CT scanner for pipeline inspection, is unveiled to the world’s oil and gas industry at UTC, Norway. OptimusTM, a ground-breaking new level measurement instrument wins the Institute of Physics Innovation Award.
Johnson Matthey is named as the UK’s most admired company. The Measurement Technology Centre is opened in the UK.
