Oasys Water opens Mideast office in Dubai

DUBAI, February 25, 2016

US-based Oasys Water, the world leader in developing innovative Forward Osmosis (FO) based solutions, has opened an office in Dubai, UAE to support business opportunities in the Middle East.

Additionally, Oasys Water has reassigned Sada Krishnan, who was previously managing projects in Australia, to Dubai to lead these efforts at a time when conventional and unconventional oil and gas recovery, power generation and inland desalination projects are rapidly growing in the region.

“Over the past two years since launching our award winning ClearFlo brine concentration technology, Oasys has been intensely focused on delivering high value solutions with our partners to oil and gas and power generation customers in North America and China. In parallel, we have been analyzing additional markets as we build upon this success and pursue our mission of helping to solve the global water crisis,” said Jim Matheson, president and CEO of Oasys Water.

“The Middle East and the GCC region specifically, emerged as a natural choice given the increasing water challenges faced by the oil and gas sector, which, alongside growth in broader industrialization, combine to exert massive stress on scarce water resources in the region.”

Water market research firm Global Water Intelligence (GWI) notes that the overall EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) region is the world’s largest industrial water treatment market in 2016, comprising 38 per cent of the worldwide expenditure on equipment and systems.

Krishnan has been appointed director of Middle Eastern Business Development and general manager for the company’s Dubai office. In this role, Krishnan will be tasked with expanding Oasys Water’s presence in the Middle East and enabling the company to support the unique water treatment needs in the region.

“Creating a presence and appointing Sada to lead our efforts in this region is an important milestone for Oasys and demonstrates our commitment to being a key part of the solution set for the Middle East. We are very enthusiastic about the prospects in this region and expect it will represent an important and significant aspect of our business moving forward,” added Matheson. – TradeArabia News Service
