GTSC has completed one deal, with its most recent occurring on September 23, 2024, when it was acquired by 3T Energy Group, a portfolio company of Blue Water Energy. Gulf Technical and Safety Training Centre (GTSC) offers an extensive array of training programs that emphasize technical and safety competencies. Established in 1993, GTSC has grown to become the largest stand-alone training center of its kind in the Middle East, having trained nearly a million students. Its core offerings include specialized courses such as Rigger Level 2 and Level 3 training, focusing on essential skills in rigging principles and lifting operations.

Additionally, GTSC provides HABC-accredited courses covering fire safety, health and safety in the workplace, customer service, and food safety, catering to professionals in industries such as oil and gas, construction, and maritime across the Middle East, North Africa, and other international markets. GTSC generates revenue primarily through course fees for its diverse training programs. Clients pay on a fee-for-service basis, enrolling in courses that range from one-day workshops to multi-week training sessions. The pricing model reflects the complexity and duration of each course, ensuring efficient resource allocation to meet client training needs.

GTSC's offerings, including HABC-accredited programs, enhance professional skills and safety compliance, attracting a consistent number of participants from various sectors seeking to improve safety and technical proficiency in their operations. Following the acquisition by 3T Energy Group in September 2024, GTSC plans to expand its offerings and strengthen its market presence. The acquisition will enable GTSC to broaden its resources and geographic reach, although specific new products or courses have not been disclosed. The company aims to enhance its position in the training industry by leveraging the capabilities and networks of 3T Energy Group.
