ALE Strengthens Presence in Houston

Strategic heavy-lift firm ALE has expanded its operations in the U.S. with the opening of offices in the I-10 Energy Corridor, Houston.

ALE said the move to a permanent branch is designed to better serve U.S. clients with a particular focus on large-scale projects “across the Gulf Coast, Texas and Louisiana.” The office move coincides with recruitment of additional experienced personnel and investment in new heavy-lift and transport equipment.

“We can now offer a dedicated USA branch, fully focused to the local needs of the market. Unlike our competitors, we are not just an asset provider, but bring an engineering and solutions- driven approach to our clients and their projects,” Richard Peckover, regional director at ALE.

Headquartered in Staffordshire in the UK, ALE provides heavy-lift services for a range of industries. The firm has more than 30 regional offices around the world and focuses on heavy-lift projects in oil and gas, civil, nuclear, offshore, renewables, petrochemical, ports, marine, minerals and metals and mining.
