TLA advises Al Mansoori Specialized Engineering on sale of GTSC

Tribonian Law Advisors (“TLA”) has advised Al Mansoori Specialized Engineering, the Middle East-based provider of oilfield services, on the sale of the entire share capital of Gulf Technical & Safety Training Centre (“GTSC”) to UK-based 3t.

Founded in 1993, GTSC is Middle East’s largest energy training business, with presence in Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Egypt, and has trained almost one million people in the Middle Eastern energy sector. The company has an extensive array of industry-accredited technical, offshore survival, HSE, firefighting and road safety training courses delivered at its own purpose-built training facilities. 3t, the UK-headquartered leader in the provision of training for safety-critical industries, is backed by specialist private equity firm Bluewater.

The TLA team was led by the firm’s partner, Carlo Pianese, who was assisted by associates Siwar Roumanos and Raya Akhdar.
