Leading Geo-data specialist Fugro announced the opening of a new Remote Operations Center (ROC) in India, named as “Drishti”.
Assisted by Fugro’s remote operations and support services team, the new regional facility was set up in the record time of just eight weeks and it will be known by the name ‘Drishti’, the Sanskrit word for ‘vision’.
The addition of the new Drishti ROC will allow clients in the Middle East and India to benefit from Fugro’s remote inspection and positioning solutions.
Until now, Fugro has recorded over 350,000 remote operations project hours, setting new standards for safety and sustainability in land and marine environments.
At the opening ceremony, Wim Herijgers, Group Director for Development and Digital Transformation commented:
