Duratec’s wholly owned subsidiary MEnD Consulting has recently acquired Port Kennedy-based RGK Resources.
RGK Resources focuses on inspection, maintenance and testing rope access services in onshore and offshore projects.
In a statement, RGK said its accreditation and specialised service offerings, combined with MEnD’s, would allow a skillset that was not yet available to the market.
RGK’s key operational and management roles will remain in place, the company said in a statement.
“This acquisition marks a significant growth opportunity for our business, fast tracking our development and expansion, and will enable further access to key Tier 1 clientele within our targeted industries as well as emerging markets,” RGK Resources managing director Aaron Kaeding said.
“We are thrilled to be joining the MEnD and Duratec team and look forward to contributing to the overall success of the business.”
Duratec managing director Chris Oates said adding RGK to the group strengthen the company’s ability to deliver fully integrated asset lifecycle solutions.
“Their (RGK) technical discipline, awarded accreditations and strong industry ties align perfectly with MEnD and Duratec services,” he said.
“By combining our capabilities, we will now be able to provide an expanded and uniquely comprehensive service offering. We look forward to supporting RGK’s continued growth.”
MEnD managing director Liam Holloway said RGK’s services complemented its offering.
“We believe this acquisition will have a compounding effect on performance, expanding the value offering to our current clients and will allow us to leverage and scale operations through the reach of Duratec,” he said.
“I personally look forward to working closely with Aaron in bringing new opportunities to our people and delivering value across Duratec.”
Duratec bought MEnD Consulting in late 2017.
