Oilenco Ltd, a leading provider of specialised well intervention solutions and services, has announced a series of promotions and new roles to its top team as it seeks to expand its global reach and begin the next phase of its journey.

One of the primary changes to the company’s structure will be the appointment of Blair McCombie to the position of Managing Director. Having joined the company as an operations director in 2017, McCombie has been instrumental to the growth of the organisation, its increase in revenue year-on-year, and the almost doubling of its workforce in the last two years. Now, McCombie is tasked with leading the company onto new horizons, and will oversee its overall performance and future direction.

In undertaking this sizeable task, Oilenco has ensured McCombie is well supported with a number of further key appointments. This includes the promotion of Davie Nicoll to the role of Buiness Director for Africa; the introduction of Graham Masson as Business Director for UK and Europe earlier this year; and the transition of Warren Ackroyd, Owner and previous Managing Director of the company, to the new job of Technical Director. Kim Ackroyd will continue her role as Finance Director, completing a formidable, experienced lineup that will focus on implementing strategies for regional growth and create a strategic focus on driving innovation.

“As well as expanding our global reach, one major component of growth is investment in developing our product portfolio through enhancing our existing products as well as new product development,” remarked Blair. “With Warren’s invaluable expertise and a dedicated team under his direction, we are able to listen to our clients, creating solutions that meet their needs, as well as the needs of the global well intervention and P&A industry.

"The knowledge, experience, and creativity of the Oilenco team is what sets us apart and allows us to provide reliable, high-quality solutions and services. Since starting with the company, I have seen a shift to a more service-led environment, where clients rely on a variety of services including design, manufacture, redress, refurbishment, product rental and training, all within Oilenco’s capabilities and areas we will continue to develop. As we celebrate 15 years this year and we kick-start our next chapter, I am delighted to become managing director, leading the company in the next phase of its journey.”
