This acquisition is a strategic move for us, and we look forward to working with Pelagian to provide our clients with innovative and reliable subsea cable solutions.”
The deal comes after OEG’s recent partnership announcement with Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., marking a new chapter for OEG and signals the group’s commitment to expanding its business and global reach.
Peter Fisk, Managing Director of Pelagian said, “Pelagian possesses one of the most experienced cable consulting teams in the world and we can provide the glue across many components of the OEG Group, enabling a more cohesive offering to their various industries. As we hit our 20th anniversary as a respected service supplier we look forward to exciting growth as part of the OEG team.”
