It was announced today that Wood Group has established a new data analytics centre of excellence at its office in Galway, Ireland. 

The centre which is supported by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise & Innovation through IDA Ireland broadens Wood Group’s capabilities in advanced data analytics to support the oil & gas, industrial, utility and power generation sectors.
 
A key focus of the centre will be the innovative application to the energy industry of data analytics technologies developed and deployed across other industries. Wood Group is looking to grow the data analytics team to ten people by year end with the intention of developing further employment opportunities next year.
 
Welcoming the Wood Group announcement, Minister Mary Mitchell O' Connor said, "This company is at the cutting edge of providing services for the oil and gas and power generation industries and will create further high skilled jobs in Galway. It is very gratifying that they are based in a regional location, and their expansion here dovetails with the Government's Regional Action Plan for Jobs process."
