The recent acquisition of Argonauta in the US and the establishment of the company in Canada are further steps in our strategy to build a network to support our customers, the international oil and gas operators, in the fulfillment of their projects globally. The balance sheet is strong and we have capacity for further organic growth and growth through acquisition.
