Avantis Marine Forms Strategic Alliance with OEM Group

Avantis Group, a leader in eco-friendly marine solutions, is excited to announce a strategic alliance with OEM Group Limited, a frontrunner in oilfield services. This collaboration, supported by a memorandum of understanding, marries Avantis Group’s dedication to environmental stewardship with the comprehensive oilfield capabilities of OEM Group.

Formalised in December 2023, the alliance builds upon OEM Group’s solid foundation established by Barry Park in 2012 and its further expansion in to the UAE in 2021. This union is set to forge new paths in service efficiency and innovation across engine services, drilling rental tools, fuel testing, and filtration, in line with Avantis Marine’s goal of augmenting operational prowess in the marine and Oil & Gas arenas.

George Gourlay, NED Strategy & Development of Avantis Group, remarked, “This strategic alliance with OEM Group reflects our belief in the power of collaboration, Avantis have experienced dynamic growth over the past 4 years, and it is crucial that we build on this and keep the momentum going. To achieve continued growth, it is essential that we partner with synergistic organisations such as OEM Group that bring complementary service offerings and new skill sets to Avantis Group. I am genuinely excited about the possibilities that lie ahead of us as a collaborative partnership and look forward to working with Barry and his team.”

Barry Park, Group Managing Director of OEM Group, echoed this sentiment, ” We are delighted to align with Avantis through the recently signed MOU. The agreement allows OEM to reach new markets across different industries and be involved with larger projects while continuing to deliver the high standard of quality on power related solutions and beyond. Avantis is an exciting business to be working with who have a fantastic team throughout, bringing a vast amount of knowledge across multi-disciplines.”

Avantis has been a pivotal force in spearheading environmental initiatives and sustainable practices within the marine sector. OEM Group’s global outreach and their focus on customer-oriented services are anticipated to elevate this partnership, setting new precedents within the industry.

The collaboration between Avantis and OEM Group is a significant stride towards integrating comprehensive oilfield services with eco-conscious strategies. This partnership transcends the provision of services—it’s about enriching client experiences and leading transformative change within the industry.
