B2B Petrocosm Adds 19,000 SF to 50,000-SF Corporate Site

HOUSTON-A Houston-based B2B is on the move instead of retreating like many dot-coms. Petrocosm has added 19,000 sf to its 50,000-sf corporate headquarters at Briar Lake Plaza in a freshly signed 10-year pact.

HOUSTON-Houston-based B2B Petrocosm Corp. is pumping up its 50,000-sf corporate office space by 19,000 sf at Briar Lake Plaza. The oil and gas exchange B2B carries the support of heavyweights such as Chevron Corp., Texaco Inc., National Oilwell, Crosspoint Venture Partners, KPMG, Ariba Inc. and Requisite Technology, Chuck Goldstein, a Strategis/CRESA Houston broker, tells GlobeSt.com. It’s just been six months since Petrocosm signed its first lease, Goldstein says. Building owner Tishman Speyer Properties was represented by Chip Colville in the 10-year lease transaction.

Goldstein says this is a particularly interesting deal and coming “at a time when dot-coms are struggling.” Goldstein adds that Petrocosm had been attracted to the building’s infrastructure that is more conducive to the needs of a high-tech company. And, it’s relatively new, he says. The two-year-old, 20-story, 503,000-sf building offers redundant telephone and communication service, up to eight watts per sf of electrical power and fiber-optic connectivity. The building even has a specially designed rooftop for microwave and satellite antennas, including directional line-of-site transmission.
