EAME has delivered projects in over 30 countries across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, Australia, and the Americas, with more than 30 environmental projects completed in Iraq since 2010. Its primary customers are international oil companies (BP, Shell, PetroChina, Rumaila Operating Organisation, Basra Gas Company), Export Credit Agencies and international funders, property and infrastructure developers (e.g., Salhia Investments, GE Power, Basra Multi-purpose Terminal, Biwater, Construction Management Services SARL), and EPC contractors.

EAME operates a project-based professional services revenue model with quote-based pricing tailored to individual mandates, sourced through senior-led enterprise business development, industry-association and business-council membership (IBBC, MEA, BRCC, British Expertise International), and direct engagement with IOCs, ECAs, developers, and EPC contractors. Distribution is entirely direct, with services delivered by EAME's own integrated consulting team. The company is founder-led (Steve Rowan, Managing Director) and has expanded organically into multiple geographies without external institutional investment.
