Air Energi and Swift Worldwide Resources have merged to form a new company bringing together the two recruitment firms.
The newly formed firm, Airswift, will create a $1.2billion turnover specialising in global workforce solutions for the energy, process and infrastructure services.
Air Energi has secured a deal to supply contract personnel to Qatar Petroleum.
The five-year deal, which includes a two-year extension option, will see the company support the national oil company’s offshore redevelopment project at the Bull Hanine oil field.
Air Energi will help source candidates from across a number of disciplines including engineering, construction and health, safety and environment and quality.
Air Energi has landed a contract with BP Iraq to supply personnel for its operations for the giant Rumaila and Kirkuk oil fields.
The five-year deal is Air Energi’s biggest ever win in the region.
The fields, which represent 40% of Iraq’s total production last year, are estimated to hold 20 billion barrels of reserves.
