The Neptune Energy Group, an independent global exploration and production (E&P) company, has made three senior appointments, based in its Aberdeen and London offices.
Pete Jones has joined Neptune Energy Group Holdings as UK managing director and will be based in Aberdeen. Most recently Mr Jones held the position of managing director of Taqa Europe. He has over 25 years’ international experience in the upstream oil and gas sector. Jones has spent the majority of his career with Marathon Oil where he held a number of senior managerial positions, including UK managing director and regional vice president.
Meanwhile, Bruce Webb will take up the global position of vice president, operations, later this month. Webb most recently worked with DNO, where he held the position of chief operating officer based in Dubai. He is a chemical engineer by education with over 25 years’ experience, the majority of which was gained at BP. He started his career downstream with BP at Grangemouth Refinery and moved into upstream activities where he has gained experience in the North Sea, Middle East, North Africa, West Africa, South East Asia and North America. Webb has a wealth of global operating experience and a proven track record in delivering results across challenging environments.
Andrea Guerra will also be joining Neptune later in August as corporate vice president, reservoir engineering. Guerra will be relocating from Houston to take up this new position. She joins from Apache where she covered the North Sea, Argentina and the Gulf Coast in the course of her work.
