In 2007, Quicksilver Industries acquired the O'Shea Shipping Company - along with all of its sister companies, for $108 billion. Under QSI, O’Shea became a brand name and many other shipbuilding and shipping-related companies were established under the O'Shea brand, including one of the largest Caphirian ship owning, managing, and leasing (chartering) companies - Combulatus, which manages and provides ships to shipping companies under long term charter-party agreements. In 2025, QSI went through a massive reorganization; a parent company called the O'Shea Corporation would be formed in order to effectively and efficiently manage the O'Shea portfolio of companies. Currently, the company is organized into four divisions which act as quasi-independent companies: O'Shea Shipping, O'Shea Industrial, O'Shea Services, and O'Shea Management.
