Global offshore accommodations specialist to the oil and gas industry, HB Rentals has appointed a business development manager for the Middle East and North Africa in line with growing demand and continued expansion in the region.

Rami Miled will be based between the company’s facilities in Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah, UAE and will be responsible for the development of the company’s clients and prospective clients, helping to provide on the ground support and manage the increasing demand HB Rentals is experiencing for its accommodation and services.

With more than 15 years of experience and an extensive knowledge of the oil and gas sector, Miled has previously held positions at O.I.L. Engineering Middle East and German Industrial Services Establishment.

He said: “It is an exciting time for HB Rentals in the MENA region. The company has worked here for many years, but having a dedicated base on the ground highlights the importance of this region to HB Rentals and our commitment to growing business here. I look forward to using my knowledge and experience to help develop the company’s expertise in the region”.

Michael Bradley, sales and marketing manager for EMEA and Asia Pacific Regions added: “Rami’s appointment is really an indication of the significant growth in business we have seen in the MENA region recently”.

“We have had to move a number of additional units from the UK and Singapore to keep up with demand as more and more companies seek the high quality, flexibility and rapid mobilisation which HB Rentals can deliver. Rami brings a wealth of experience to the company, and the team and I are delighted to have him on board”.
