Scottish entrepreneur and former world land speed record-holder Richard Noble helped Paradigm Flow Services celebrate a £4.25million investment in new headquarters.
The company has relocated to larger premises in Drumoak, Aberdeenshire, from Kintore.
Mr Noble, who is gearing up for another attempt on regaining the land speed record he held between 1983 and 1997, was guest speaker at a special event held to mark the move.
Paradigm, which was launched five years ago and now employs about 40 people, develops ground-breaking, field-proven technology for the energy industry.
It specialises in technology for the detection, remediation and prevention of subsea and topside blockages.
The new facility, next to the Aberdeen-Perth road, comprises 18,000sq ft of office and 51,000sq ft of yard space.
It houses one of just a few test centres in the north-east specialising in firewater deluge, subsea and topside technologies, specialist industrial cleaning and pressure testing.
Paradigm managing director Rob Bain said: “We were delighted to welcome special guests, including the Aberdeenshire Provost, to our facility and share with them our plans in the company of such an inspiring and motivational speaker.”
