ThinJack director Guy Bromby added: "James is an experienced and enthusiastic technician who has received positive customer feedback in his first two months with the company. We are getting busier all the time and he is a key member of our team in an important role."

ThinJack is a millimetric thin steel envelope which can be inflated with 2,500 bar of hydraulic pressure to exert hundreds of tonnes of force, making it the ideal separating and jacking solution in hazardous, difficult or restricted areas. The bespoke service is primarily used for the rigless separation of seized well flanges.

The company is headed by Guy Bromby and Alastair MacDonald and is based at Arnhall Business Park, Westhill. ThinJack currently employs six people at Westhill with additional trained field technicians at its overseas bases at Melbourne in Australia, Al Khobar in Saudi Arabia, Houston in Texas and Luling in Louisiana, USA.
