Andy Inglis, chief executive of Petrofac’s Integrated Energy Services (IES) business, will be leaving the company at the end of February 2014 and stepping down from the Board. Andy has been appointed as the chairman and chief executive at the US-listed Kosmos Energy and will take up his new position in Dallas, Texas, upon departure from Petrofac.
Rob Jewkes, currently managing director of Developments for IES, will assume the role of COO of the IES business, reporting directly to group chief executive Ayman Asfari who will oversee the IES business. Rob has been with Petrofac since 2004, where he has played a central role in the development of the business. He has a strong engineering and project management background, and 35 years’ experience in the oil and gas sector.
Group Chief Executive Ayman Asfari said, “Andy has made a significant and lasting impact on Petrofac’s success. The growth of the IES business, which has seen a three-fold increase in net profit in just three years, is testament to his achievements and he leaves with our gratitude and best wishes for the future. I look forward to working with Rob and the team to take the business forward.”
