Hunting PLC, the international energy services group, has agreed to acquire TSI Acquisition Holdings LLC and its subsidiaries including Titan Specialties, Ltd. for a total consideration of US$ 775 million (approx £475 million).

Titan is a leading provider of perforating gun systems, shaped charges, well logging instrumentation, perforating gun switches and other engineered hardware used in the drilling, completion and maintenance of oil and gas wells.

The increasing complexity of horizontal wells drives demand for Titan's products coupled with positive sector dynamics which are driving an anticipated increase in on-shore shale oil and gas production and increases in US land drilling and completion spending.
