ROV Superintendent - Skandi Acergy from September 2007 to September 2015

Acergy UK / Subsea 7

ROV Superintendent (Offshore), for MV Skandi Acergy from 2007 to 2015.

Selected for the Skandi Acergy Project at an early stage of the vessel build. Assisted with the initial ROV system design, undertook site visits and acceptance tests with the main sub-contractors; finally leading the installation and commissioning of the component parts on the vessel. Since entering service the ROV systems have performed excellently in a variety of prestigious campaigns worldwide.

The vessel projects undertaken were typically heavy construction and flexible lay operations. See the 'Skandi Acergy Project History' for details of all campaigns undertaken during my time with the vessel.
