Harkand, an inspection, repair, maintenance (IRM) and light construction company, has named Doug Fieldgate general manager of its African business.
Fieldgate has 23 years of experience in the African oil and gas market primarily focused on West Africa – he will be based in Houston, the North America and Africa operations headquarters, and will lead the company’s continued expansion into the region working closely with its consortium partners.
The assignment of a general manager for Africa follows Harkand’s successes in the region including the recent contract award by Technip in Ghana providing survey services and the one year contract for a major oil and gas operator to deliver ROV, project management, engineering and technical support services in Nigeria.
“Our strategic expansion into Africa will strengthen our ability to respond to the needs of our clients,” said John Reed, CEO of Harkand. “Doug’s in-depth knowledge of the region and our successful collaboration with our local partners will ensure we achieve this goal in the various countries with a coordinated resilience.”
