petroleum retailing , lubricants and specialised products were added to the portfolio and increasingly outside capital was brought into the business to fund expansion during the sixties and seventies . the hitherto privately owned hunting interests went public in three separate , though interrelated quoted companies . the situation was simplified in 1989 under clive hunting when all three were merged into the present hunting plc . his nephew richard hunting subsequently succeeded to the chair , taking up the reins as the company entered this new era .

41 . awe is a ' government - owned contractor - operated ' ( goco ) organisation , with mod owning the sites and facilities but operations being performed by a contractor . hunting - brae ltd has been the contractor for the last seven years and has used the employees of awe plc to manage and operate the site on a day to day basis . awe plc is a company created by mod ; it employs most of the workforce on the awe sites and is the repository of awe ' s scientific and production expertise . for the purposes of the goco arrangement awe plc became a subsidiary of hunting brae , the latter holding all the shares in awe plc with the exception of one special share retained by the secretary of state for defence .
by the end of the 1950s , hunting also had begun to look beyond its core businesses for growth . in 1957 , for example , the company decided to extend its engineering expertise into the growing field of heating and ventilation , forming a new subsidiary hunting mhoglas . by the early 1960s , the company had expanded into plastics manufacturing as well , and in 1962 the company created a new subsidiary , hunting light industries , to contain its various diversified engineering and plastics businesses . other operations grouped under hunting light industries included the field aircraft services group , including its african subsidiaries . the hunting group itself was by then controlled by pat hunting , son of percy hunting .
1962 after further diversification , such as in plastics manufacturing , the company launches hunting light industries .

wood chief financial officer david kemp said . aberdeen - based wood plc ' s market comments echo those of smaller rivals petrofac ltd ( pfc . l ) and hunting plc ( htg . l ) .
it was clear that awe plc would be the company with day to day control of the sites and activities upon them , and whose staff would manage the operation of the plant . consequently awe plc , as the user of the sites , was the appropriate body to hold the nuclear site licences in accordance with section 1 of the ni act ;
43 . under the revised goco arrangement operating from 1 april 2000 aweml is contracted to deliver results but compelled to sub - contract manufacture etc . to awe plc , which operates the sites . aweml is responsible for the supply of some management expertise through the recruitment of personnel who are formally directors of awe plc and thus part of the licensed corporate body .

hunting , the oil services and defence group , has rebuffed a takeover approach from duke street capital , a private equity firm .
this was duke street ' s second attempt to hold takeover talks with hunting . in the spring , it spoke to mr hunting and the non - executive directors . mr hunting said yesterday that the group had
had discussions with private equity houses
. however , it rebuffed these approaches and , at the annual meeting on april 26 , decided to put its defence business up for sale .
yesterday mr hunting confirmed the approach .
edmund truell rang me on the day of the results and he said we ought to go private . we said it ' s not our strategy .
mr hunting added :
we haven ' t had an offer .
hunting plc , the international energy services company , today announced that it has signed a collaboration agreement with us - based enhanced oil recovery company , titan oil recovery inc . the agreement allows hunting to add organic oil recovery ( oor ) to a growing list of hunting ‘tek - hub’ products and technologies focussed on enhancing production in late field life . the oor process involves stimulating the growth of specific species of indigenous microbes within producing reservoirs , which have the effect of reducing the physical size of trapped oil droplets , greatly enhancing production rates at a fraction of the cost of alternate enhanced oil recovery ( eor ) technologies .
it was indeed a worldwide , leading edge concern that sir percy hunting left to the next generation and to pat hunting on his retirement with a knighthood in 1960 . always a pragmatist and a people person , his drive and enthusiasm for getting the best out of the team made a lasting impression .
50 . the awe plc nuclear safety committee terms of reference and procedures are unchanged . curriculum vitae for the new nsc members were formally submitted to nii and , following consideration of the particulars , no objections were made on membership .
non - nia65 risks : awe management limited and awe plc are indemnified against nuclear risks beyond the £140m for which insurance is required under the provisions of nia65 , embracing claims arising as a result of damage to property , or in respect of death or personal injury to a third party .
hunting increasingly sought outside capital to fuel its expansion , giving rise to a fairly complex organization - - by the end of the 1960s , the hunting family ' s interests were represented by three publicly listed companies , each of which also maintained significant shareholdings in the others . during the 1960s , the company also began retailing petroleum products , especially in canada , where it became one of the market leaders . this was especially true in the retail distribution of propane gas ; by the end of the century , hunting claimed the number two spot in the canadian market for this segment .
44 . from 1 . 4 . 2000 the chief executive of awe plc is required to attend the board meetings of aweml and can thus contribute to any discussion that might directly or indirectly affect safety . additionally there is an independent director to the aweml board with specific responsibility for monitoring safety performance .
the approach was made by edmund truell , duke street ' s chief executive , on thursday last week after hunting reported its half - year results , where pre - tax profits rose 7pc to £13 . 3m . mr truell called richard hunting , the executive chairman whose family controls 28pc of the shares , and indicated he was prepared to make an offer at a reasonable premium to the then share price .
nuclear installations act ( nia65 ) risks : awe plc is indemnified against any claims arising out of , or in conjunction with its use of the establishment and transport of nuclear matter to and from the establishment for which insurance of up to £140m , exclusive of interest and costs , is required under nia65 .

in the electronics arena hunting provides power supplies , printed circuit board’s ( pcb ) primarily for the measurement while drilling / logging while drilling ( mwd / lwd ) sector as well as switch gear and instrumentation for managing perforating operations .
hunting’s well intervention activities support the range of operations undertaken in the maintenance of an active well to include pressure control equipment , slickline and wireline , mechanical plant , thru - tubing technologies and well testing equipment that supports ongoing production .
hunting ' s exposure to the defense and aviation industries left the company vulnerable in the early 1990s . the collapse of the soviet empire and the end of the cold war caused a dropoff in defense spending around the world . the outbreak of war in the persian gulf also led to a downturn in the aviation industry . pressure on these operations continued throughout the decade , and by the late 1990s hunting had decided to abandon the aviation business , selling off its aviation holdings by 1999 .
much later the hunting name in aviation became synonymous with a range of military and civil aircraft including the jet provost and in its nascent days the aircraft that would become one of britain ' s best export sellers , the bac 1 - 11 .

60 . the environment agency act 1995 ( ea act ) 7 introduced a statutory obligation on hse to consult the appropriate environment agency ( ea ) before granting or revoking a licence . hse consulted the ea in relation to the licence applications for aldermaston and burghfield under the terms of the ea act . the ea raised no objection to the granting of the new licences and the revocation of those being superseded . the ea also indicated its intention to issue to awe plc new authorisations under the radioactive substances act 1993 for the disposal of radioactive wastes from aldermaston and burghfield and to revoke the authorisations formerly held by hunting - brae ltd .

the first world war decimated the hunting fleet and when charles ' two sons percy and lindsay got to grips with the business in the early twenties it was a desolate landscape that greeted the brothers . determined once again to rebuild the fleet , percy as
governing partner
also diversified the business by taking the company into aircraft servicing and manufacturing , and some years later an airline business , hunting clan . during the 1930’s , the brothers also backed an e & p venture , prospecting for oil in the texas .
2001 hunting exits the defense market and completes the disposal of its diversified operations to become a focused energy services group ; the company acquires thread tech energy systems , and columbia fuels , both in canada , as part of an acquisition drive to boost energy services operations .
56 . the mod provided an assurance that as regards the funding level for decommissioning and waste management , the management contractor is committed to meeting all identified decommissioning and waste management requirements known at the point of bidding . to the extent that regulatory requirements imposed on awe plc increase the commitment associated with decommissioning and waste management beyond that contemplated in the contract , the associated additional costs would fall to mod .
in 2001 , hunting acquired two canadian oil services companies , thread tech energy systems and columbia fuels . the former provided oilfield tubulars and connections , while the latter focused on propane equipment supply and services , in large part on vancouver island . other acquisitions followed , including 2002 ' s purchase of roforge , in france , which manufactured steel valves for the global energy , refining , and petrochemical industries . in 2005 , the company added operations in aberdeen , houston , and singapore through its purchase of cromar ltd . the addition of cromar expanded hunting ' s energy services profile , adding new areas such as a wireline pressure control , perforating tools , and other specialized equipment . hunting continued to build on its heritage as one of the world ' s oldest and leading providers of services to the international energy industry .
47 . in view of the proposal that awe plc should be the licensee but with management and financial expertise provided by directors recruited by aweml , nii paid particular attention to the integrity of the licence applicant as a corporate body . subsequently , the arrangements for implementation of the prospectus and the commitment to it of the management and the workforce were reviewed through inspections undertaken by nii inspectors , with the following outcomes :
last week it said it was
continuing our negotiations with a number of interested parties
. last night mr truell said :
we made a serious approach that we still hope the board will consider . it ' s not our intention to make a hostile bid for hunting .
hunting ' s reorganization continued into the first half of the 2000s , which saw the company exit most of its defense operations in 2001 and the disposal of most of its other diversified businesses , such as operations in automobile parts manufacturing . in this way , the company transformed itself from a diversified
mini - conglomerate
into a company dedicated to the energy services market . as such , the company launched a series of acquisitions into the mid - 2000s . in 1998 , for example , the company acquired landell industries , which expanded hunting ' s position in the gulf of mexico market .
change is our travelling companion ; we have demonstrated endless resilience and willingness to embrace new industrial and societal contexts . entrepreneurial spirit has been ever present during our history , from the founding by charles samuel hunting right through to today , where we are continually driving new possibilities for oil and gas extraction .
oilfield services company wood plc said it was not yet able to demand higher prices for its products despite an oil market rally that has been helping energy companies . the changed landscape comes as a relief for service providers after a slump in crude prices that forced producers to cut spending and defer or cancel contracts .
we do feel like we are coming out of that ( oil and gas ) down cycle ,
wood chief financial officer david kemp said .
he was a dynamic and directed man , characterised by his clear vision on what would power world trade . leading by example he took a timely risk by ordering one of the first ever oil tankers . a subsequent building programme was to see one of the largest independent tanker fleets in the world flying the hunting flag .
54 . mod has obtained joint and several unlimited guarantees from the parent companies of awe ml which underwrite all the liabilities of awe ml , including all those relating to awe plc . these parent companies are major defence contractors and are subject to mod ' s normal scrutiny on financial health . in addition to this normal and general oversight , mod runs special financial health checks whenever circumstances arise which render it prudent to do so . through these arrangements mod has confirmed that it will ensure that adequate funding is available to maintain safety .
the acquisition of the titan group in 2011 was the largest in the company’s history significantly extending the range and utility of products in the wellbore from downhole instrumentation and perforating systems to access complex and unconventional reserves around the world . hunting continues in its search for value with management in the vanguard , inspired by the entrepreneurial spirit and driven by the leadership of previous generations .
local stocks of consumable products provide the customer with ready access to mwd components , drill screens , float valve assemblies , handling equipment and job boxes . perforating systems , setting tools , tubing conveyed firing heads and hardware , energetics , logging and perforating equipment , wireline hardware and accessories and wireline selective firing systems , are all made available through hunting’s global distribution network but proving particularly effective for onshore operations , typically in the shale basins .
the company manufactures tools and equipment for the global upstream energy industry . this can be hunting proprietary technology , customer owned intellectual property or print part . products are engineered principally for application down hole through the functional stages in the wellbore from drilling through to plug and abandonment . manufacturing is undertaken at facilities strategically located in the major oil and gas centres around the world . the global distribution network gives the customer technical and logistical support at a local level .
when charles samuel hunting entered the oil business in the 1890s he was already expanding upon a successful shipowning firm set up by his father , also named charles , in 1874 . an inveterate traveller , he had journeyed the world
to study the oil trade
and in short order had pursued exploration prospects in russia , built the first batch oil refinery on the thames , invested in a production venture in hungary and sought trading opportunities out of the gulf of mexico .
state of the art premium connections and semi - premium connections are developed in house with ancillary engineered products that protect the wellbore from annular pressure buildup . hunting also provides thread sealant and thread protection products to enhance thread performance capabilities . the company has a state of the art connection testing facility supporting industry or customer specific testing requirements . the oil country tubular goods ( octg ) capability provides casing and tubing solutions integrated within the manufacturing and maintenance facilities representing world class pipe mills and octg distributors .
in the drilling phase the company provides a wide range of mud motors , vibration dampeners , reamers , non - magnetic drill collars and assorted other rental tools to assist in the drilling of the wellbore . hunting’s advanced machining capabilities extend to deep hole boring , gun drilling , precision grinding and coating capabilities . in the construction phase , advanced machining capabilities extend to deep hole boring , gun drilling , precision grinding , honing , trepanning , an assortment of critical inspection and coating capabilities and horizontal directional drilling ( hdd ) rods , accessories and turnkey manufacturing capabilities that support the hdd and trenchless industries .
further diversification came after the second world war in which yet again hunting personnel suffered the most appalling loss of life in the tanker trade . the urgency to test new markets , scan the horizon for new opportunities and to anticipate the needs of industry led the brothers into all sorts of ventures - and adventures . not always successfully , but always with an eye to be leaders in the field . oil had been struck in texas , a world - class defence company had been established ( whose precision engineering skills gave rise to the formation of an oil services company ) , an aerial survey and geophysical business with a global reach built and substantial investments made in the canadian oil sector .
the hunting community is committed to the protection of the environment no matter where in the world we operate . we aim to use renewable resources wherever possible and develop manufacturing processes and procedures such that any impact on the environment , if any , is reduced to a practicable minimum . we take the view that sustainable development is in the interests of all our stakeholders and include environmental issues in our planning and decision - making . policy is developed at a corporate level and encourages each operating unit to : develop and implement their own procedures whilst conducting regular reviews to ensure that they are maintained and refined ; reduce waste , emissions and promote the use of recycled materials ; pay special regard to the environmental issues and requirements of the communities and locations in which we work and live ; be involved in and understand the particular environmental issues relating to the industry in which we operate ; promote employee awareness of their own responsibilities and encourage participation in voluntary environmental projects .

45 . an important aspect of hse ' s approach to the regulation of awe was to gain confidence that the licensee had a robust safety management system and possessed a well structured and resourced organisation to manage the licensed sites .
46 . a safety management prospectus ( smp ) can be regarded as that part of a licensee ' s safety case which deals with management issues ; it describes the organisation of a licensee / licence applicant , its environmental , health and safety policy and its safety management system . the smp provides assurances on various issues . the items that should be covered are indicated in hse ' s publication :
nuclear site licences - notes for applicants
.
it was clear that the new management team would bring wide and relevant experiences of the management of complex organisations . it was also evident that a great deal of thought had been given to the
lead in
process . some of the directors had been involved in taking over other goco organisations and were clear on the processes that needed to be followed ;
approximately 180 supporting staff were involved in a large programme of information gathering . these assessments , for the lead - in process , were completed by april 1st . strategic objectives and plans had been prepared . examination of those plans and discussions with the directors provided evidence that the plans were being developed for the long term ;
each of the new directors had a programme of familiarisation visits to the plants for which they were to become responsible . briefings on the management prospectus and current safety management systems had also been provided . some of the current awe senior managers / directors were expected to remain with the company for at least 6 months . this was judged to be a prudent measure and one which would contribute to a smooth transition .
the new management team had stated that it wished to be more open in its dealings with employees , the public and mod . it was evident that efforts had been made to provide the workforce with information ; several briefing sessions had been held and three newsletters had been issued .
48 . the management prospectus met the requirements identified in the
notes for applicants
guidance , subject to minor changes .
49 . licence condition 13 requires that a licensee should set up a senior level committee which should consider and advise on matters which affect the safe design , construction , commissioning , operation and decommissioning of the installations on the licensed site and any other matters relevant to safety . the committee must have members who are adequately qualified to perform this task and to provide a source of authoritative advice to the licensee . the committee , however , is purely advisory and must not be considered to have an executive function , but the hse must be informed if the advice of the committee is not to be followed by the licensee .
51 . hse should be satisfied before granting a licence that the applicant corporate body has the necessary financial resources to discharge the obligations and liabilities connected with having a nuclear site licence .
52 . the sites and assets on them are the property of mod . changes to this asset base , including those related to safety , can only be made with mod approval and are funded through mod ' s management and operation contract with awe ml . changes to the asset base , in this context , include the decommissioning of plant , equipment and facilities as well as the creation of new assets . as owner of the sites , mod is responsible for the eventual decommissioning of the sites when that is considered appropriate . such decommissioning would be undertaken under contracts placed and funded by mod , who will also meet associated long - term liabilities .
55 . in view of the assurances received from the ministry of defence hse has not deemed it necessary to assess the financial arrangements of the prospective licensee in detail .
57 . under the ni act s . 19 ( 1 ) licensees must ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet third party claims within the limits prescribed in the act . this provision is not enforceable by hse under the hswa , but comes within the remit of the department of trade and industry . however the licensee ' s ability to satisfy dti in this respect is included in hse ' s consideration of the licence application .
58 . mod has provided an indemnity for the awe sites as an alternative to commercial insurance . the indemnity , effective from 1 april 2000 , is in two parts in respect of nuclear risks :

the early shipping years bred a strong culture of trust and expectation of integrity . it was possible , after all in those pre - radio days , for a master of his ship to be away for nearly a year on some of the longest voyages . the ship ' s company needed the reassurance that the owners were working in their best interests and the owners on their part had to have faith in the dependence of their crew . this autonomous style of management is still deeply rooted .

* all numbers are in millions except for per share data and ratio . all numbers are in their local exchange ' s currency .
* competitive companies are chosen from companies within the same industry , with headquarter located in same country , with closest market capitalization ; x - axis shows the market cap , and y - axis shows the term value ; the bigger the dot , the larger the market cap .
the current ratio is mainly used to give an idea of the company ' s ability to pay back its short - term liabilities with its short - term assets .
the current ratio can give a sense of the efficiency of a company ' s operating cycle or its ability to turn its product into cash . companies that have trouble getting paid on their receivables or have long inventory turnover can run into liquidity problems because they are unable to alleviate their obligations . because business operations differ in each industry , it is always more useful to compare companies within the same industry .
acceptable current ratios vary from industry to industry and are generally between 1 and 3 for healthy businesses .
the higher the current ratio , the more capable the company is of paying its obligations . a ratio under 1 suggests that the company would be unable to pay off its obligations if they came due at that point . while this shows the company is not in good financial health , it does not necessarily mean that it will go bankrupt - as there are many ways to access financing - but it is definitely not a good sign .

very exciting time to be a part of this company , as it is entering a phase of expansion . if you’re looking for an exciting opportunity , with growth potential , and where your out of the box thinking is valued , this is the place to be . not the typical boring job , but each day presents new challenges and i look forward to going into work in the morning . also our products help people and it is great to be a part of something that contributes to the well - being of society .
with growth brings many new hires , and so there is the learning curve . but these individuals are top notch and a valuable part to the company’s growth . . . once everyone gains the necessary experience , our work force will gain a good share of seasoned employees .
management is very transparent and informs employees of new developments . they seem to value their employees much more than my past companies . they have a solid vision and understanding of how they want to achieve growth in the next 5 - 10 years . keep doing what you have been .
while there is lots of growth very little of the advancement seems to come from within . planning seems to be poor many projects feel like last minute rushes . this is exasperated by the fact senior management will just say get it done and pack up after their 9 - 5 or agree to completely ridiculous deadlines since they won’t be doing the work . company morale is not great , most of senior management is toxic . a certain senior executive at the vista site seems to be the primary cause . he consistently bad mouths everyone but contributes nothing as he plays on his cell phone in most meetings . it’s really mentally and emotionally draining and causes lots of unnecessary problems . the pay isn’t competitive with the area which causes a pretty high turnover rate .
there have been some bumps in the road with the transition , but i’m seeing these growing pains as a thing of the past .
they hire a lot of recent graduates , great position to learn and master techniques .
important to career development , and we are happy to be a part of each employee’s growth and success . we understand that not having all the facts can be frustrating , and we are working towards having greater visibility at all levels . with the pressures of the day - to - day work , your manager may not always disseminate information to you . we are making big efforts to improve our communication , with focus on clear , precise , timely and understandable communication . while we work to develop our communication , we ask for and appreciate your patience . if at any time you feel that management communication is not effective , please feel free to let your manager know your impressions and expectations .
got potential due to new management . they will hire people right out of college and hire incompetent managers just because they know someone inside . benefits are okay . thankful for the monthly food offerings . awesome new coffee machine . there are a lot of good valuable and respectable employees .
top heavy . too many upper management babysitting incompetent managers . horrible management . lack of communication from management to subordinates . extremely disorganized . they don ' t value employees and everyone is viewed as expendable . no promotion or raises unless you give notice . toxic environment . quality and safety is very questionable . everything is last minute
value , respect , and listen to your employees . assess management and let go of the incompetent ones who does not deserve to be managing people .
thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback . the vista site is a growing organization and like “building a puzzle” it takes time to put all the pieces of the organization in place . open
- upper management doesn ' t do anything to fix anything , if at any time you suggest a solution , they consider you a threat and try to demote you . - if you threaten to leave , they ' ll promote you , making the people who work hard day in and day out , not get converted to full time or get raises . - you address concerns to corporate and they don ' t care because they are in switzerland . they are not public in the u . s . so they don ' t care . - upper management hr doesn ' t do their job correctly , nepotism at its best , hiring their friends , even if they don ' t have qualifications . - high turn - over rates , which means you work harder to cover for those who left . - very toxic environment
it starts with the top of the pyramid , so when upper management doesn ' t care , the rest of the pyramid falls apart . there ' s high turn - over rates and upper management hr doesn ' t do anything about it , hiring people without experiences . lots of cliques are formed , upper management has favorites that they groom and promote . i don ' t see this company lasting for more than 10 years , at least not the vista site . it ' s a very toxic environment to work in .
good benefits . a lot of smart and talented ground level employees and a few managers who are helpful and work incredibly hard . plenty of opportunities to learn new things .
evaluate your management team , many people in middle to upper management are unqualified or incompetent and make the troop level employees frustrated and exhausted as they have to take on or correct their boss ' work . stop rushing every project . stop cutting corners on equipment and building needs . re - evaluate your priorities - sales mean nothing if you can ' t complete a product on time or guarantee its quality because equipment was assembled and installed hastily without proper qualification and testing . invest more in your facility .
poor management . lack of direction , communication , knowledge , attention to details . no accountability . people at the management level has no managerial skill set , not enough technical knowledge , not enough compliance knowledge . like many reviews said , there are people at the top , just because they have been with the company for a long time . when things don ' t go right , they blame the workers to cover themselves . and you have new people ( management ) who constantly compare this place to another giant pharma , yet has zero knowledge to lead , quick to blame others , inappropriately holding others accountable for their lack of ability . very sad . stay away from this place . if you work hard , you are expected to work even harder and get blamed if things go wrong . poor planning , poor communication , poor compliance , poor management . sorry for the people who still works there .
as an opportunity to grow and improve . efforts are ongoing to develop enhanced training programs at all levels of the organization , including management levels . it is our continuing goal to create a dynamic and attractive workplace for both our current and future employees , one which provides opportunities for individual growth and development and which recognizes and rewards individual contributions toward common goals .
good medical benefits and the site is located in a great area . suggestions for problems can be seen by management . appreciation for birthdays .
the morale at the site is very low . negativity is spread everyday . in order to change this , it has to be struck at the head or heart or the source , which is management . our concerns are voiced everyday . the number 1 concern at the site is promoting within your own department and then opening the door for outsiders . when an employee wants to leave please let that happen and give an opportunity for others to grab this opportunity to move up . we need moral support from management . the overall pay at the site is very low . when employees perform well , promote and pay . when employees offer real change and positive effects , promote and pay . when employees put in long hours and allow the company to make most of it’s profit for the year in 1 month , promote and pay . this is the greatest morale you can give to the employees . others will follow in line and want to do the best they can do .
this is the employer ' s chance to tell you why you should work for them . the information provided is from their perspective .
this will replace the current featured review for targeted profile . are you sure you want to replace it ?
