Magseis Chairman Steps Down

Mari Thjømøe

Norwegian seabed seismic services player, Magseis, informed that its chairman Mari Thjømøe has, for personal reasons, decided to tender her resignation.

The board has accepted the resignation and appointed board member Jan P. Grimnes as the new interim chairman of the board until the date of the annual general meeting for 2017.

To remind, in July this year, Magseis announced Dr. Idar Horstad as the company’s new chief executive officer (CEO). He is s scheduled to succeed co-founder and CEO Ivar Gimse this month.

The Oslo-listed company has seen red ink at the end of the second quarter 2016, on 53 percent revenue drop, but said it anticipates better days backed by the Red Sea survey for Saudi Aramco.

UTC 2017

The subsea industry has, as all other parts of the oil & gas industry, been seriously rattled by the most severe downturn in the hydrocarbon energy era. However, the realization of what hit us and actions to be taken to sustain a healthy and profitable future is still on-going – unfortunately with thousands of colleagues paying the price by losing their job as one of the most severe consequences. At this time, there are signs that we have reached bottom in terms of most industry indicators, but few experts expect a sharp recovery. Many seem to believe that a slow recovery is what the industry needs in order to avoid an unsustainable capacity build-up, as seen in the period after the financial crisis. Considering the uncertainty of what the future will bring, this year’s UTC Program Committee have decided to challenge all of us to present ideas, experiences, technological innovations, business models and execution models for how to shape our subsea future and explain how and why subsea is the future.
UTC welcomes abstracts based on the topics listed below. If selected, please consider writing a paper in addition to the UTC presentation. From 2017, UTC papers will be published in an international database.
