Limassol, Cyprus – Tiger Offshore Rentals of Texas announced today that it has acquired OAG East Med
Offshore Rentals, making it the only local provider of DNV 2.7-1 certified offshore equipment in Cyprus.
OAG has been recognized as one of the fastest growing providers of offshore cargo carrying units (CCUs)
in the Mediterranean region, and the addition of OAG cements Tiger’s dominant position to service the
Leviathan gas field, as well as ongoing opportunities in the Mediterranean and North African region.
“OAG’s substantial inventory of half height and mini containers as well as cuttings skips, boat skips, and
other tool baskets and containers is a welcome addition to the already substantial Tiger rental fleet,”
says David McCormack, Tiger’s manager for the region. “This puts Tiger in the driver’s seat when it
comes to providing DNV 2.7-1 certified cargo carrying equipment and fluid tanks to the offshore logistics
community in the Mediterranean and North African regions.”
The burgeoning opportunities in North Africa as well as the recently discovered Leviathan Gas Field in
the Eastern Mediterranean is driving demand for this type of specialized, high quality certified
equipment.
“We are excited to welcome OAG employees and customers to Tiger. Our focus right now is on
providing outstanding service to OAG customers and offering an expanded inventory of products and
capabilities,” says McCormack.
Tiger Offshore Rentals is excited to add Cyprus to its international rental force covering North and South
America, the Middle East as well as Africa and beyond.
