COPENHAGEN – A.P. Moller - Maersk (Maersk) today announced that it has entered into an agreement to sell Maersk Training and its subsidiary Maersk H2S Safety Services to Open Gate Capital, an industrial, corporate carve-out specialist. The agreement remains subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
The transaction reflects Maersk's ongoing focus on the development of its strategic brands and recognises the strong positions that Maersk Training and Maersk H2S Services have established in the market. Under the ownership of Open Gate Capital, the business will be well positioned to continue its growth with a dedicated strategic focus on training, gas detection, safety and workforce competency solutions.
Maersk Training has built a strong business with highly skilled colleagues, trusted customer relationships and a solid foundation for future growth. We believe this transaction will enable Maersk Training to continue developing under an owner with training, safety and competency solutions as a key focus area, creating new opportunities for customers, employees and the business alike.
For more than four decades, Maersk Training has provided specialised training, competence development and safety services to industries including energy, maritime, renewables and logistics, supporting customers in managing operational risk and workforce safety.
This is an important milestone for Maersk Training. The agreement recognises the strong business we have built together over the past 40+ years. While many of us are proud of our Maersk heritage, we are equally excited about the opportunities this next chapter brings under an owner that has experience in unlocking long-term value and will enable our strategic focus. Until the transaction closes, our focus remains unchanged: serving our customers, supporting one another and delivering on our commitments and ambitions.
Until the transaction closes, expected later in 2026, Maersk Training continues to operate as part of A.P. Moller - Maersk. Employees, customers, and partners should expect business to continue as usual throughout the transition period.
