Aberdeen Oil Companies Look to Houston Transl Follow

With Aberdeen, Scotland being the Oil Capital of Europe, it is home to hundreds of oil businesses and energy-related businesses.  Shell Oil, Total, Dolphin Drilling, Stena, Drilltech, Petrofac, Subsea UK, Trident, Wood Group and Global Energy Group are just a handfull of the countless companies in Aberdeen.  In recent years, many of the cost-conscious companies have turned away from European translation companies in favor of the more economical Houston translation services.  When seeking translations of their oil related documents many energy company executives do not take into account that American translation companies do not charge value added tax (VAT).  This tax can add significant expense to translations over a very short period as they vary from 17.5% in the United Kingdom to nearly 20% in Switzerland.  Furthermore, Houston translation companies, like The Marketing Analysts hire the same UK translators that the expensive UK firms do.  For this reason, it only makes sense that oil and gas industry executives needing their documents translated turn to translation firms based in the United States.
