RRC Controls  have just moved to larger industrial premises (our third move in seven years) in the Aberdeen area  to expand our available services including repair, design and supply of equipment. We have now completed various Control Module and sensor repairs and a number of 'new builds'.

We can now claim to have nine SCMs subsea (the first has been running since September 2005) all without problem.
