Is this not just great!

Merlin is over 99% employee owned having begun its journey from an owner-managed to an employee-owned business in August 2017.

Employee Shareholders

All employees are shareholders in our growing business, with their shareholding being held within a Trust and their engagement assured through the democratic election of an Employee Director and an Employee Trustee

Invested, Engaged, Aligned

Employee ownership means that we are all invested, engaged, and aligned in ensuring that the business achieves profitable growth - and we can only do that by helping or clients to be more successful, and by delivering excellent service.

Long Term Interest

Having this balanced and inclusive approach to business helps us positively promote and preserve the long-term interests of all our business stakeholders – employees, clients, suppliers, and our community alike.

We like independence

Merlin is fiercely independent and believes that this independence, in conjunction with employee ownership, creates real differentiation in an industry saturated with private-equity vehicles and billion dollar conglomerates.

Industry-Leading Experts

This combination enables Merlin to attract and retain the best in the business; industry-leading complex well experts, equipped with real know-how, having decades of global drilling experience, assuring flawless operational delivery.

Truly Independent Advice

With no ties to external businesses or major shareholders, Merlin is agile and able to provide truly independent advice, tailored to specific project requirements, from engineering consultation, through training, to operational support. All this from a team that is personally invested and focussed on ensuring our clients get the best possible fit for their purpose.
