Kemira Relocates Global Oil and Mining Headquarters
HOUSTON - Helsinki-based Kemira has completed the relocation of its global Oil & Mining segment headquarters to Houston. The company signed a multi-year lease for a 15,000-square-foot space at Briarlake Plaza Two, a 19-story building along the Houston Energy Corridor. In addition to the new office, Kemira is opening a technical service laboratory located in close proximity to the Houston headquarters. The lab will be completed and fully staffed by the end of the first quarter of 2015. Kemira will maintain its corporate headquarters for the Americas region in Atlanta.
“We are very excited about our move to this new HQ location in Houston,” said Tarjei Johansen, President of Kemira Oil & Mining. “The new spaces will increase Kemira’s visibility and profile in the oil and gas industry while also bringing us closer to our customers. With our new technical support laboratory, we will be able to provide faster local technical and applications service to support our customers in the field.”
