About

I am an energy executive with more than 20 years of international experience in large-scale offshore and LNG developments. Throughout my career, I have focused on strengthening project predictability, capital efficiency and structured governance across complex, multi-billion-dollar portfolios. At TotalEnergies, I led planning and performance systems for major upstream and LNG developments, including the USD 17B North Field expansion, contributing to significant CAPEX optimisation and schedule discipline through reinforced cross-functional governance. Currently based in Oslo, I work at the intersection of: • Major offshore project execution • Portfolio-level performance management • EPC contract governance • Risk and cost transparency • Structural improvement of planning and controls systems I am particularly interested in how large energy operators industrialise execution excellence across portfolios while balancing capital discipline, safety and long-term value creation within the Norwegian context.
