ABL Group (OSE: ABL Group ASA – ticker code “ABL”) is a leading independent global consultancy delivering energy, marine, engineering and digital solutions to drive safety and sustainability in renewables, maritime and oil & gas sectors. The group has offices in 39 countries worldwide and operates under four brands: ABL, OWC, Longitude and AGR.
“Since 2012 we have built a reputation in the French market as a go-to and dedicated technical consultancy in marine renewable energy technologies. In time and since joining ABL Group, we have successfully expanded our work to Asia, Africa, and the Americas. This is the natural next step in our journey. By joining forces under the OWC brand, we’re unlocking greater synergies, expanding our reach, and offering even more comprehensive solutions to our clients worldwide.”
Hakim Mouslim, Co-Founder of Innosea and OWC’s Regional Director for Europe
This rebranding will also officially expand OWC’s geographical reach to France, further unlocking its diverse expertise to support the country’s offshore wind development and wider energy transition.
“Innosea has already been working closely with OWC, as our French branch since 2021 – we share the same culture and values and combine an extensive track record across offshore wind and energy transition technologies, both in France and abroad. Officially as one company, we can pool more resources, a wider breadth of engineering disciplines and experience, and leverage our global footprint to bring the cutting-edge services that we provide, to benefit more markets, both onshore and offshore.”
Further to this, Innosea’s structural, hydrodynamics, and foundations engineering teams have moved to the Group’s design house, Longitude. This transition consolidates the Group’s capability in offshore wind design, forming a team that can deliver from concept to detailed design and installation engineering. It also gives Longitude an established platform to support the French market.
“Longitude has long served French renewable energy development, predominantly in marine operations engineering. It is exciting to have a formal base to provide more localised support to the French offshore and other renewable markets.”
Jan Erik Berg, Global Director of Longitude’s offshore wind design
The final rebrand will take place in July 2025.
