Great American Group announced the expansion of its oil and gas practice with the addition of Robert Callaway as Vice President, Head of Oil and Gas.
Callaway, an executive with more than 20 years of experience, will utilize his expertise in the oil and gas sector to support Great American Group’s rapidly growing business. Callaway’s responsibilities will include business development and oversight of the oil and gas practice.
“There is an oil and gas revolution going on in the United States,” said Marc Musitano, COO of Great American Group’s Machinery and Equipment Division. “With U.S. oil production up 40 percent since 2008, and the U.S. expecting to produce 7.3 million barrels per day this year, GA is increasing its presence to support that growth,” continued Musitano. “Robert’s wealth of industry knowledge and expertise will help us to better serve our customers while also positioning us as an industry leader in the sector.”
In addition to the hire of Mr. Callaway, Great American Group is further investing in its oil and gas practice by expanding its Dallas office, to house the rapidly growing team.
