Englobe to acquire Calgary engineering firm Obsidian Engineering, adding over 400 professionals
Calgary-based Obsidian has delivered more than 3,500 projects across energy and data center markets.
CALGARY, AB, Oct. 29, 2026 /CNW/ -- Englobe has entered into an agreement to acquire Obsidian Engineering Corp. (Obsidian), a Calgary-based multidisciplinary engineering firm specializing in engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCM) services for private-sector clients. The acquisition will add over 400 professionals and expand Englobe's engineering and project delivery capabilities in Western Canada.
Founded in 2017, Obsidian has delivered more than 3,500 projects across established and emerging energy markets. Its experience spans data centers, natural gas processing facilities, thermal facilities, pipelines, well pads, CO₂ infrastructure, renewable energy solutions, and specialized facilities, including helium recovery projects.
The acquisition represents another step in Englobe's Western Canada growth strategy. Combining Obsidian's engineering expertise and project experience with Englobe's national organization will broaden both companies' capabilities across energy and industrial markets.
"Expanding Englobe's position in Western Canada is a central part of our regional growth strategy," said Mike Cormier, President of Englobe. "Obsidian adds meaningful scale and multidisciplinary engineering and project delivery expertise, strengthening our ability to serve clients and pursue increasingly complex opportunities across the region."
Following the close of the transaction, Obsidian clients will continue to work with their existing teams and trusted advisors while gaining access to Englobe's broader national platform.
"We see this partnership as the next step in Obsidian's diversification and an opportunity to bring greater value to our clients and resiliency to our team," said Mark Czechowsky, CEO of Obsidian. "Joining Englobe will allow us to support a wider range of client needs while maintaining the responsive, relationship-based approach they value."
Working with Englobe will also create new opportunities to connect people and expertise across the two organizations and expand the range of capabilities the teams can deliver.
"Obsidian's strength lies in our people and culture, the breadth of our technical expertise and our ability to deliver comprehensive, multidisciplinary projects," said Obsidian President Shane Smith. "Together with Englobe, we can strengthen those capabilities, expanding opportunities for our people, and share knowledge across our teams."
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. The transaction is expected to close later in the fourth quarter of 2026.
