HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwired - Apr 1, 2015) - Cimation, an engineering and operations consulting company, is proud to announce the opening of its London office, its seventh office and first overseas. Cimation UK expands the organization's delivery capabilities to the European market by focusing on developing cyber security solutions for global energy companies, including oil and gas, refining, chemical, power, utilities, and storage businesses.
Cyber security for industrial operations comes with a unique set of challenges (http://ctt.marketwire.com/?release=1184924&id=5775121&type=1&url=https%3a%2f%2fcimation.uberflip.com%2fi%2f413682-crossing-the-great-divide-white-paper-enterprise-vs-industrial-it), which many IT-focused organizations fail to understand. Cimation's London team, however, combines hands-on experience in process control environments with knowledge of cyber security best practices -- a rare combination that makes all the difference when securing operations technology.
"We are committed to securing industrial technology in the energy industry, and the cyber security talent we've brought together in our UK office is doing just that for our European customers," says Luis Luque, Cimation's Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer. "We are excited to grow this team and plan to add automation and industrial IT talent to round out our capabilities."
The newest Cimation office is an indication of things to come for the company's international development. "We are fortunate to have key clients that believe in the value of our organization and have helped pave the way for us in international markets," says Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Jonathan Klein. "While our immediate attention is focused on Cimation UK, we believe it will catalyze our growth into a global organization."
Cimation intends to use its first European location as a hub for the pursuit of new projects and strategic partnerships in energy markets across Europe and the Middle East. With a number of key programs already underway in the UK and Europe, Cimation UK will be instrumental in providing ongoing support for those programs and for the company's continuing expansion efforts.
