J&S Subsea Limited appoint new Managing Director

The Aberdeen-based subsea controls engineering division of SEA, a subsidiary of technology group Cohort, have expanded their management team further with the appointment of experienced Oil and Gas professional Phil Reid.

Phil has worked in the oil and gas industry for over 25 years. Having started his career with Kvaerner FSSL, he progressed through a variety of roles in subsea engineering, from the manufacturing side to leading some of their most complex projects all over the world.

Phil worked with the original J+S team for a period before moving on to Genesis Oil and Gas as a Subsea Controls Engineering consultant and during that period he was seconded to Centrica Energy (now Spirit Energy), which led to a permanent role as Lead Subsea Controls & Umbilical Engineer for Developments, Capital Projects and Operated Assets.

For almost a decade Phil successfully delivered Capital Projects from concept right through to project close out, whilst also looking after the running of their subsea assets.

As Managing Director of J&S Subsea limited, Phil will oversee the day to day operations and help grow the business both in the UK and globally.

This appointment comes after recent news of J&S Subsea’s management buyout and is more good news for the company as they seek to build on their excellent reputation.

J&S Subsea is a global subsea energy controls company for new and recertified equipment. The business will continue to focus on refurbishing, designing, manufacturing and engineering controls for the energy sector and providing operational support where required.
