I have worked with Gary on Mafumeira 3 offshore project , Block 0, Angola where I used to work as the deputy project manager and have received reports of Gary's work from the Hook up manager. I know him to be a diligent and efficient Superintendent over a team of Saipem welders, who performed excellently and with minimal rejections. I feel confident in recommending him for supervisory roles to other similar projects.

Gary worked with me during 2015 in Angola on the Mafumeira project, I found him to be very professional and knowledgeable in his trade, he conducted regular toolbox talks and safety meetings, wrote all his own RAMS and JSA's. He supervised his team of 40 welders with ease and brought the project in before the scheduled date and under budget. I would recommend him thoroughly and look forward to working with him again.
