LUX Assure expands presence in Middle East

Oil and gas asset integrity and corrosion management firm LUX Assure has further increased its presence in the Middle East by signing a sales agreement with Muscat-based Black Gold.

Black Gold offers business and technical advice, as well as cutting edge technology to the oil and gas sector. It will act as a sales agent for LUX Assure, both promoting and assisting with deployments of the company’s chemical monitoring technologies in Oman.

Targeting the Middle East

LUX Assure CEO, Charles Cruickshank, commented: “Our capabilities and offerings in the Middle East are going from strength-to-strength. The agreement with Black Gold, recent ties with Middle East Oilfield Services Company (MEOFS) and Consolidated Suppliers, and appointment of Mahmoud El-Hawary as regional business development consultant have benefited LUX Assure immensely. These developments will help us significantly to target and develop new relationships in the ME, and enhance existing links.”

Black Gold’s Managing Director, Rajan Venkateswaran, added: “We are delighted to be part of LUX Assure’s venture to further push its cutting-edge technology and systems within the Middle East. We’re confident of the significant value that the company’s offerings add to the oil and gas industry, meaning it will be very well received, and we look forward to working together to promote LUX Assure’s capabilities.”

Abu Dhabi NOC

To further consolidate its Middle East regional relations, LUX Assure is in the process of registering with state-owned Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC). ADNOC, and its 14 subsidiary companies, operate in all areas of the oil and gas industry, establishing companies and creating an integrated oil and gas industry in Abu Dhabi.

Obtaining the ADNOC accreditation will make LUX Assure an official supplier to the ADNOC group, further enhancing its profile in the region and expanding its reach and capabilities.

Cruickshank continued: “Our ambition is to deliver a quick and efficient service to our local customers. We now boast a robust, on-the-ground presence in the region, enabling us to target the right places, and further drive our products and services in the area. The ADNOC accreditation will boost this further still, and we are excited about the upcoming opportunities that the Middle East presents.”
