Specialist acquisition strengthens ASCO’s NORM Services

18 May, 2020

The acquisition reflects ASCO’s overall strategy to continually strengthen its specialist waste and decommissioning capabilities and provide its client base with a wider and fully integrated service.

Established in 2012, and originally a joint venture between ASCO and John Lawrie Group, NORM Solutions Ltd will continue to operate from its state-of-theart facility in Aberdeen, which has the capability to handle all types of NORM contaminated equipment and waste streams for the on and offshore industries, with all systems and procedures meeting the highest environmental standards.

Logical move

Chris Lloyd, ASCO’s head of waste and decommissioning, says: “Our full acquisition of NORM Solutions Ltd is a logical move for ASCO, allowing us to offer an ever-wider range of integratedservices to our offshore and onshore clients. As the decommissioning sector continues to grow, our ability to provide safe NORM treatment and disposal services will remain critical to our overall service offering to our client base.

“We have enjoyed a positive working relationship with John Lawrie Group over the last eight years and we will continue to work with them as a trusted partner.

John Davidson will remain as general manager for NORM Solutions Ltd and I am very much looking forward to consolidating and promoting ASCO’s NORM services to both existing and new clients alike.”
