ELITE Global Oil & Gas, a Singapore-based conglomerate, has officially opened its CompEx Training Centre at Crescent University Campus in Chennai, India. The company is into inspection training and supply of ex-equipment for oil and gas, marine, and power plants, along with other related electrical projects. ELITE operates in several regions including Singapore, Japan, India, and Oman.
CompEx CompEx Certification is a Leading International Competency Training and Assessment Scheme for Electrotechnical and Mechanical Practitioners working in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres.
CompEx provides vast opportunities for professionals and students to attend courses locally with easy accessibility to the Training Centre, unlike in the past, when travel to other states or overseas stations was required.
The ELITE Group has committed to invest an additional USD 100 million in India over the coming years, focusing on inspection training and other essential projects. This strategic investment will enhance local access to vital competency training programs like CompEx Certification.
