The company moved into a brick building with a couple of offices and a laboratory in 2014. They are currently in the process of expanding with new offices and production premises.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;617&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;633&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][mk_fancy_title tag_name=&#8221;span&#8221; size=&#8221;26&#8243; margin_bottom=&#8221;0&#8243; font_family=&#8221;none&#8221; responsive_align=&#8221;left&#8221;]The best in the world [\/mk_fancy_title][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1601458384716{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;]\u2013 Here in Porsgrunn, we\u2019re developing the world\u2019s best technology and have the world\u2019s best people, who are recognised and sought after by the world\u2019s biggest and best oil companies, says Mathiesen proudly on behalf of the Inflow team. Schlumberger og and other large oil service companies have tried to get this to work, but it\u2019s us at Inflow Control who have the technological know-how, and who have been able to demonstrate that this technology works.<\/p>\n<h3>Breakthrough<\/h3>\n<p>Inflow Control has developed a control valve technology which reduces emissions and increases oil production with lower costs. The company received the Rystad Energy prize, Gullkronen (The Gold Crown) 2020 for best New Venture of the Year.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 It\u2019s been a long journey. We have waited with great anticipation for this breakthrough, and now the time has come, said Inflow\u2019s founders Vidar Mathiesen and Bj\u00f8rnar Werswick during the awards ceremony in January 2020.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;637&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][mk_fancy_title tag_name=&#8221;span&#8221; size=&#8221;26&#8243; margin_bottom=&#8221;0&#8243; font_family=&#8221;none&#8221; responsive_align=&#8221;left&#8221;]Thinking big \u2013 invested considerably [\/mk_fancy_title][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1601458517937{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;]\u2013 We think big, we have done since the beginning, says Vidar Mathiesen. \u2013 This really does fit our way of doing things, adds Simon Stordalen of Bratsberg N\u00e6ringseiendom. We have, right from the start, invested considerably in the Inflow building and continue to tailor to the company\u2019s needs. It\u2019s fantastic to be a partner in Inflow\u2019s development, says Stordalen.[\/vc_column_text][mk_fancy_title tag_name=&#8221;span&#8221; size=&#8221;26&#8243; margin_top=&#8221;20&#8243; margin_bottom=&#8221;0&#8243; font_family=&#8221;none&#8221; responsive_align=&#8221;left&#8221;]\u2013 If not here, where else? [\/mk_fancy_title][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1601458743560{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;]<em>Why have you chosen to develop yourselves internationally from Porsgrunn? <\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2013 If not here, where else?, asks Mathiesen rhetorically. We live and work here, and are building on the skills of the industry where the entrepreneurs met each other. What was crucial in our decision to establish ourselves here at Porselensfabrikken was our first encounter with Bratsberg N\u00e6ringseiendom.<\/p>\n<h3>Being ambitious is in keeping with how we operate<\/h3>\n<p>&#8211; We looked at several possibilities, and saw potential in the old brick building, which was at that time an empty factory building, explains Vidar. &#8211; The property developer said immediately,<br \/>\n&#8220;We can get this off the ground for you- how soon do you need it ready?&#8221;. We liked this ambitious approach. It is in keeping with how we operate.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;639&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][mk_fancy_title tag_name=&#8221;span&#8221; size=&#8221;26&#8243; margin_bottom=&#8221;0&#8243; font_family=&#8221;none&#8221; responsive_align=&#8221;left&#8221;]Attracting the best [\/mk_fancy_title][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1601458889749{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;]\u2013 Of course, we need to attract the best people, explains Mathiesen. To have good premises is important. One of our top candidates was a little sceptical, but when she saw the premises here at Porselensfabrikken, it helped her make her decision to start with us.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Look at the walls. We want to look international and innovative, and to be the ones who dare to challenge and compete with established international companies.<\/p>\n<h3>Creating the right work environment<\/h3>\n<p>Mathiesen talks about personnel team building in order to establish how the work environment should be.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 We have put a lot of creativity into the walls and the logos, which are incorporated into the murals and window surfaces. Creating the right work environment helps attract the best people.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inflow Control og Bratsberg satser offensivt sammen for at oljeventilselskapet skal lykkes worldwide fra Porselensfabrikken i Porsgrunn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1773,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2273","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-current-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 -
