Ratos AB: Mads Andersen takes over as new CEO of Aibel
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
This information is disclosed pursuant to the Swedish Securities Market Act, the
Swedish Financial Instruments Trading Act or requirements stipulated in the
listing agreement.
In conjunction with the retirement of Aibel's current CEO, Jan Skogseth, Mads
Andersen has been appointed to take over the role as CEO from 1 January 2017.
Mads has extensive industry experience and is currently President of OneSubsea
Processing System which is owned by Schlumberger.
Mads Andersen has solid experience gained from management positions in the oil
and gas industry. These include his current position as President of OneSubsea
Processing System and previously as Cameron International's Country Manager for
Norway, Executive Vice President at Aker Solutions and President of Maritime
Well Services. Mads is 51 and holds a BSc Mechanical Engineering from the
University of Glasgow and an associate degree in Business/Managerial Economics
from BI Norwegian Business School. He replaces Jan Skogseth, who has been CEO of
Aibel since 2008 and who is retiring at the age of 62.
"Aibel is a fantastic company, which I have been entrusted with leading over
many years and during this period we have shown that we are extremely
competitive and we have created a strong market position that enables the
possibility of continued expansion, both inside and outside of existing areas",
says Jan Skogseth, CEO of Aibel.
"The Board has many reasons for thanking Jan Skogseth for his strong
contribution over the years. He has successfully strengthened the company's
position and is now handing it over at a phase where the company has a stable
platform for continued development. We also believe that Mads Andersen, with his
extensive experience from the oil and gas industry, can continue to lead the
company through the challenges facing the industry and leverage the
opportunities and potential that can be realised", says Helge Midttun, Chairman
of Aibel.
Jan Skogseth will remain as CEO until the end of 2016 and Mads Andersen will
take over the reins on 1 January 2017. Jan will assume an advisory role at the
company in the spring of 2017 to ensure a structured handover.
