EXPERIENCE
Oct. 2015 – Present: Independent Consultant, Houston
Providing comprehensive range of services in risk, reliability and asset integrity studies,
including QRA, RAM, RBI, FMECA, technical safety studies, process safety studies, and many
more, for the upstream, midstream and downstream oil and gas sectors. Also providing custom
computer programming services, for example in Monte Carlo simulation for risk-based decision
analysis.
Oct. 2014 – Oct. 2015: Discipline Manager, Risk, Reliability and Integrity Management,
INTECSEA Inc., Houston
INTECSEA relies for its position in the industry on being a thought-leader. As well as managing
the discipline, I conducted original research into cutting-edge risk assessment methodologies,
making new discoveries in both quantitative and qualitative methods of risk assessment. I was
also an active member of the API 17N code committee, an activity commenced while I was at
Peritus.
Jan. 2011 – Oct. 2014: VP of Risk and Integrity Management, Peritus International, Inc.,
Houston
I built the risk and integrity management group from scratch. I acquired, managed and performed
risk and reliability studies for major offshore and onshore projects in the USA, Canada, Mexico,
Europe, Asia, and Africa. I was also active on the API 17N committee and in conducting
research into new risk assessment methodologies. I gave presentations on these methodologies at
conferences in Malaysia and Korea.
Jan. 2000 – Dec. 2010: President, EPConsult, London, Aberdeen and Houston
I built a successful consultancy with offices in London, Aberdeen and Houston performing risk
and reliability studies in all parts of the world for onshore and offshore oil and gas facilities. I
testified as an expert witness in risk-based inspection (RBI) in the case of the failures of Inconel
718 stud bolts in the subsea flowlines of the Barracuda-Caratinga fields, Brazil.
1985 – 2000: Independent Consultant, Peter Carr Consultants Ltd., London
Worked as an independent contractor, mainly for Shell, WS Atkins, Brown & Root and JP
Kenny, performing risk assessments for offshore projects. For a 4-year period in this time
interval (1994-98), I was employed as staff at Brown and Root. Performed many topsides and
subsea safety studies. Highlights included inventing a risk-based inspection (RBI) methodology
and performing the first RBI studies in the oil and gas industry (and possibly in any industry) –
my general approach is now used throughout the energy industry. Studies to rationalize Conoco’s

use of standby vessels in the North Sea led to a nomination for the Conoco President’s Award as
a result of saving Conoco many millions of dollars per year in operational expense.
1983 – 1985: Senior Engineer, Petro-Marine Engineering, London
Built a thriving business for Petro-Marine at a time of low oil price and lack of new projects by
performing advanced analysis to show that theoretically understrength or damaged North Sea
installations were still fit-for-purpose.
1982 – 1983: Structural Engineer, Ellis & Moore, London
Performed structural design of new buildings and refurbishments.
1980 – 1982: Project Manager and Head of Structural Engineering, SaudConsult,
Dammam, Saudi Arabia
Project Manager for numerous projects for Aramco, the most notable being the detail design of
the Tanajib Marine Facility Project, a new harbor to service Aramco supply boats, when I
managed a team of 60 personnel to complete the project in under a year. I introduced radical
changes to the earlier conceptual design, greatly reducing capex.
1976-1980: Deputy Head of Structures Division, The Agrément Board, Garston, UK
Responsible for the assessment of innovative building systems by means of analysis and testing.
Also performed R&D to produce new methods of assessment and testing. I drafted the very first
European Union (EU) Construction Industry Directive and steered it through meetings in
Brussels, Berlin and Vienna to eventual adoption by the EU.
1974 – 1976: Structural Engineer, Ward Ashcroft and Parkman, London
Designed office and industrial structures in steel, reinforced concrete, brickwork and timber.
Became a Chartered Structural Engineer at an exceptionally young age.
1970 – 1974: Research Assistant, Imperial College, London
Assisted in supervision of construction and testing of structural models of the Thames Barrier
rising-sector box-girder floodgates.
