History

Beginnings

After completing his studies of measurement and control technology, Hermann Rosen founded an engineering company in Lingen (Ems) in the mid-1970s. [7] Initially he worked with devices and services related to measuring technology for the agricultural sector, among other things. [8] The foundation of the ROSEN Group was laid in 1981 with the start of the H. Rosen Engineering GmbH. [1] The company worked for customers from the oil and gas industry and offered mainly services for pipelines. In 1988, the company relocated to the industrial park in Lingen (Ems). [9]

Expansion

In the 1990s, the current ROSEN Group founded a number of branch offices abroad. The locations included: United States, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Malaysia and Australia. [7]

In 2000, the company moved its headquarters from Lingen to Stans in Switzerland. [10] In the following decade, the network of branch offices expanded to include locations in The Netherlands, United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Ukraine, Russia, Brazil, and Colombia.

Despite the relocation of headquarters and corporate expansion, Lingen remained an important location. In 2006, a separate plastics production was established. In September 2012, the Prime Minister of Lower Saxony, David McAllister, opened ROSEN Group's Innovation Center. [11] One year later, a new logistics center using the Kanban system was opened in Lingen. [12] [13]

In October 2013, the company carried out the longest nonstop inspection run until that time in the Nord Stream Pipeline (1,224 km). [14]

Hermann Rosen has managed the corporate group [15] since its inception. Only for the time period from the beginning of 2013 to the end of 2014, Friedrich Hecker acted as CEO. [16]

Miscellaneous

Symposia

Every two years since 2012, the company organizes an international symposium (ROSEN Energy and Innovation Forum): Decision-makers from the global oil and gas industry discuss pivotal issues in an interdisciplinary atmosphere. [28]

Educational Activities

ROSEN Group is very active in the STEM area to provide advancement for children, youth, and university students. Since 1995, the company has been endowing the Advancement Award for Physics (Förderpreis Physik) of the University of Osnabrück. [29] Together with other companies from the Emsland region, ROSEN Group supports university students through the Emsland Scholarship (Emslandstipendium). [30] In addition, ROSEN Group is also one of the patrons of the German national scholarship (Deutschlandstipendium). [31]

To support its international employees and their children, ROSEN Group established a bilingual inhouse daycare (ROKIDS) in Lingen in 2007, [32] the first of its kind in the Emsland district. [33] In the fall of 2015, ROSEN Group's bilingual elementary school (ROBIGS) opened its doors in Lingen. [34] An extracurricular program for school children and youth was established in early 2016 (ROYOUTH). [35] The daycare, elementary school, and extracurricular program have since been organized under a separate subsidiary. [36]

Awards

In 2011, ROSEN Group received the Emsländischer Unternehmenspreis corporate award in the category corporate development. [37] In 2015, ROSEN Group won the Global Pipeline Award presented by the Pipeline Division of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) for its RoMat PGS service. Novel measuring technology allows the determination of carbon steel line pipes’ yield strength for the first time. Measured yield strength of line pipe is used to determine the pipe grade of every pipeline section referring to technical standard API 5L. [38] [39] [40]

In 2012, the inhouse daycare in Lingen received the Arbeitgeberpreis für Bildung (Employer Award for Education) in the area of early childhood education. [41] [42] [32] Furthermore it was honored with the title "House of the little researchers" (Haus der kleinen Forscher) several times. [43] In 2016, the German Choral Association (Deutscher Chorverband) awarded the Caruso Award to the facility. [44]
