Atlantic XL Exposé

Atlantic XL – Big Name, Giant Vision

Atlantic XL was founded in 2001, but its beginnings go back twenty plus years ago. The company is a part of a larger entity, XL Group, an integrated multi-discipline technology group of companies providing high technology solutions to oil and gas, petrochemical, utilities, and process industries. Founded by CEO Colin Laird, XL Group began with a vision to create a one-stop engineering company that focuses on assimilated solutions.

This vision has been adopted by Atlantic XL, who continuously works to provide a ‘process to performance’ mandate. Atlantic XL designs, engineers, and integrate solutions that focus on the process – the industrial environment where process control, supervisory and safety systems, telecommunications and information gathering are crucial to the performance.

Through this integration many of the interface problems that are often experienced are eliminated. One of our competitive advantages lies within our team. Our multi-skilled engineers and technicians are trained in a range of technologies. They are able to deliver high quality solutions to our clients at a lower overall cost.

Atlantic XL’s customer focus is primarily in Canada, where we have delivered EPC projects and provided long-term operational support. In comparison, XL Group has successfully completed projects for many international clients on time and on budget in North Sea, South America, and the Middle East.

In addition to extending our reach to the global marketplace, XL Group has also expanded its organization to meet this need. The group has reached nearly one hundred employees and five business units and continues to grow. Each business unit works independently to provide quality solutions but also works together to gain the expertise of the unit that is deemed technical expert.

XL Group is a vendor neutral company that can deliver a wide range of products and services. Our extensive experience and technical depth enable them to deliver the best solution for their clients every time.

Tina Olivero

30 years ago, Tina Olivero looked into the future and saw an opportunity to make a difference for her province and people. That difference came in the form of the oil and gas sector. Six years before there was even a drop of oil brought to the shores of Newfoundland, she founded The Oil and Gas Magazine (THE OGM) from a back room in her home on Signal Hill Road, in St. John’s, Newfoundland. A single mother, no financing, no previous journalism or oil and gas experience, she forged ahead, with a creative vision and one heck of a heaping dose of sheer determination. With her pioneering spirit, Ms. Olivero developed a magazine that would educate, inspire, motivate and entertain oil and gas readers around the world — She prides herself in marketing and promoting our province and resources in unprecedented ways. The OGM is a magazine that focuses on our projects, our people, our opportunities and ultimately becomes the bridge to new energy outcomes and a sustainable new energy world. Now diversifying into the communications realms, a natural progression from the Magazine, The OGM now offers an entirely new division - Oil & Gas Media. Today, The Oil and Gas Magazine is a global phenomenon that operates not only in Newfoundland, but also in Calgary and is read by oil and gas enthusiasts in Norway, Aberdeen, across the US and as far reaching as Abu Dhabi, in the Middle East. Believing that Energy is everyone’s business, Ms. Olivero has combined energy + culture to embrace the worlds commitment to a balance of work and home life as well as fostering a foundation for health and well being. In this era of growth and development business and lifestyle are an eloquent mix, there is no beginning or end. Partnering with over 90 oil and gas exhibitions and conferences around the world, Ms. Olivero's role as a Global Visionary is to embrace communication in a way that fosters oil and gas business and industry growth in new and creative ways.
