About

Delivering complex energy and industrial programmes into investment-ready reality. For 15+ years, I have led multi-billion-euro transformation and decarbonization programs across the global energy landscape. I bring together strategic leadership, commercial delivery, and hands-on EPCM execution with disciplined, cross-border execution across the Oil & Gas, LNG, Power, and New Energy (CCS, Maritime, PtX, Coastal Wind) sectors. My goal is to bridge the strategy room with the engine room. I drove FID readiness for €1B+ CCUS Hubs through Greenport Scandinavia, and scaled €1B+ CCS value chains (Greensand, Greenstore & Near Shore) connecting 4 regional markets. At TotalEnergies, I delivered 30%+ CAPEX/OPEX savings across a €14B global late-life asset portfolio. Currently advising on a €2B+ Energy Hub at Port of Hirtshals and co-founding a climate tech venture. I combine strategic leadership, operational mastery, and people-first mentoring, driving results at the intersection of strategy, finance, and innovation. My skills translate across sectors, whether in energy, maritime, industrial or infrastructure, the fundamentals are the same: build the right team, align stakeholders, and deliver. The core competencies I have built over time are the ones that shaped my work: Strategic Leadership & Commercial Delivery: - Strategic Advisory & Stakeholder Management - Portfolio Management - Commercial Strategy, Business Case Development & Investment Readiness (FID) - Tender, Sales & Contract Management (€4M+) - JV Structuring, M&A Due Diligence, and Partnership Negotiation - Regulatory compliance (EU, IMO, NORSOK, CCS Standards) & ETS/CDR navigation - Governance, PMO, and Stage-Gate Frameworks - Funding Strategy: Securing Innovation Fund Grants Technical Program & Operational Delivery: - Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) - Power-to-X (PtX), Hydrogen & Industrial Decarbonization - Oil & Gas (O&G) Assets & LNG Value Chain Management - FEED - EPC/EPCM Project Delivery - CAPEX/OPEX Optimization (Proven 30%+ Savings) - Asset Lifecycle Management & Reliability Engineering - Ports, Shipping, Terminals and Marine/Offshore Infrastructure Cross-Sector & Transferable Skills: - Process Standardization, & Operational Excellence - Quality Management Systems (QMS) - Cross-Functional Team Leadership (10–120+ FTE) - Change Management & Cross-Border Collaboration I am always open to collaboration, strategic partnerships, and meaningful conversations with talents, leaders, innovators, recruiters, and change-makers.
