Oil and gas software firm DNV buys rival Synergi
DNV has acquired Synergi Solutions, enlarging its present software portfolio extensively together with 30 new employees, the oil and gas industry software firm said on Wednesday.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
“We are now able to provide the most complete set of risk based software for operational integrity management and asset integrity to the energy, maritime and healthcare industries,” said Are Føllesdal Tjønn, managing director at DNV’s software house.
Being a leading provider of asset integrity software for the energy and maritime industries, DNV is now extending its portfolio to include risk based software for operational risk management, it said.
Quality, health, safety and environment (QHSE) issues are growing increasingly complex in many industries, and recognized systems for managing these risks are vital.
DNV said it looks forward to serving its global customers with the most complete interface for asset and QHSE integrity management systems.
Based in Stavanger, Norway, Synergi Solutions’ software is available in 20 languages and used in 150 countries by 500 000 users.
Existing Synergi customers, as well as new customers, will benefit from DNV’s global presence and close relationship with companies in the energy, maritime and health industries, the company said.
Through the acquisition, 30 new employees will be joining DNV’s software house.
“Both support and sales activities will be managed from our new combined unit,” said Føllesdal Tjønn. “We aim to have especially strong growth in China, Korea, Singapore, Middle East, South America, and with further expansion in North America.”
