Asset management and Equipment rental firm enjoys continued success across the Middle East

DUBAI 14 June 2012: Speedy International Asset Services Equipment Rental LLC is preparing to open a new 30,000-sqm regional hub less than three years after entering the Middle East market.

The UK-headquartered asset management firm will open its international hub at the ESNAAD Offshore supply base at Mussafah, Abu Dhabi, in August 2012.

Speedy International was established in the Middle East in January 2010 following the signing of a five-year Strategic Services Agreement with a major infrastructure conglomerate in UAE. .

Since then Speedy International has seen phenomenal interest in its services across the region, particularly within the infrastructure and oil and gas sectors. Speedy International now has bases in the UAE, Egypt, Oman and Saudi Arabia. Speedy has recently opened up offices in Qatar supporting two major infrastructure firms with temporary power solutions.

Andy Carter, Managing Director of Speedy International, is confident that the new Mussafah base will generate even more business for the UK firm.

"Speedy has immense confidence in the region. We have the fleet strength and technical expertise in handling and managing assets. Be it working for the oil and gas or the infrastructure sectors, Speedy is geared to meet the requirement, with state-of-the-art equipment and world-class customer service," he said.
