Voith Turbo, a specialist for intelligent drive systems and solutions in the oil and gas sector, opened the company's new region headquarters for its Power, Oil & Gas Division at the 11700 Katy Freeway Energy Tower in Houston, Texas.

Located in the heart of Houston's Energy Corridor, the new office furthers Voith Turbo's commitment to expanding its presence in North America and supporting its oil and gas customers. The new Houston location, off Interstate 10 near Beltway 8, includes a business development and R&D center focused on problem solving and product development. Voith invests approximately four percent of its total annual revenue in research and development.

"Opening a beautiful new location in the heart of Houston's Energy Corridor shows our commitment to the oil and gas sector," said Ron Wilson, President Americas of Voith Turbo's Power, Oil & Gas Division.

"Houston is a worldwide hub for the oil and gas industry, and many of our global customers are located in or frequently do business in the area. With the oil and gas market forecasted to remain a strong and attractive business sector into the future, Voith is committed to providing better support for our customers with expanded sales, application engineering, and project management services," he added.

"Innovation is an integral part of Voith Turbo's growth, and Houston is where new ideas in the energy sector are generated and brought to life," Wilson continued. "Expanding our presence in Houston will allow us to hire and retain the area's top business and engineering talent, placing Voith Turbo at the center of the oil and gas sector both locally and globally."
