Business Wire
At a City Hall meeting today with Houston Mayor Annise Parker,
Siemens Managing Board member Lisa Davis announced the opening of
Siemens’ new Oil & Gas Headquarters in Houston – serving the
global Oil & Gas sector from the “Energy Capital of the World”.
Davis, who leads Siemens’ oil and gas and power generation
businesses, will be based in the West Memorial Drive office in
Houston’s Energy corridor as will Siemens’ Oil & Gas and Marine
Business Unit.
“Our Houston location is critical for Siemens’ long-term growth
as it brings us closer to upstream, midstream and downstream
customers,” said Davis. “Siemens’ expertise in automation,
electrical systems, data analytics, and service combined with our
existing portfolio, including Rolls-Royce industrial
aero-derivative gas turbines, and our agreement to acquire
Houston-based Dresser-Rand, fortifies our position as the most
complete, end-to-end rotating equipment and process automation
provider in the market today.”
“Siemens is a great corporate partner and we welcome this
addition to the energy corridor,” said Mayor Parker. “It represents
strengthening of the company’s already very broad involvement in
the Houston region. We feel the Siemens impact in everything from
the well-paying jobs that keep our economy strong to the
sustainable technologies that are helping to improve the
environment and quality of life.”
Davis continued: “Nearly 2,000 Siemens employees work in the
Houston area, including more than 300 veterans, and we are pleased
to be an active corporate citizen and technology provider to the
city and the greater Houston community.”
Siemens’ technologies can be found in projects across the city.
Siemens provided Houston’s first light rail system, supplied
building control systems at NRG Park and the University of Texas MD
Anderson Cancer Center, replaced over 10,000 traffic and pedestrian
signals with LED technology, and led Houston’s Energy
Efficiency Building Retrofit program involving 5.5 million square
feet of facilities as well as upgrades to the city’s parks and
sports fields.
