To accommodate the increase in business we are moving to modern new premises in Conwy where we have drilled two test boreholes for development, calibration and conformance testing. The new RG Academy®, our centre of excellence for training and data quality, will be based here providing borehole and classroom training for our customers, delivered by experienced field professionals.
Once fully operational at our Conwy site, we will extend an invitation to all our customers to join us here to take advantage of our world-class training facilities.
