    Martin Rudd, Olive Group MD, noted: “Newport Africa, like Olive Group, has focused on the development of security solutions for the oil and gas sector and various governments. Our companies are particularly well-matched and we are excited by the opportunity ahead of us.”

    Rob Andrew, Newport Africa MD, said the company had grown quickly in the region and the acquisition would enable the firm with the technical and operational capabilities to serve clients better.
