FOCUS ON ENERGI COAST 20 QUESTIONS
WHO ARE YOU? Damien Murphy, Technical Director, FoundOcean
WHAT BROUGHT YOU INTO THE INDUSTRY/YOUR POSITION? After working as a Mechanical Engineer in an office based role I decided I wanted to see some more of the world beyond four walls and offshore was the obvious way to do it.
FAMILY STATUS?
Married 3 months ago. 0 kids, 1 puppy. WHO IS YOUR HERO AND WHY?
Isambard Kingdom Brunel not necessarily for the things he designed but for the breadth of work he carried out across what would now be considered very different engineering disciplines.
WHAT ANNOYS YOU THE MOST? Middle lane hoggers.
WHAT WAS YOUR BEST HOLIDAY? Honeymoon in the Maldives a few months ago.
WHAT WAS YOUR WORST HOLIDAY? Only the ones I’ve had to cancel.
WHO WOULD YOU NOT LIKE TO BE? Any politician. Not a career path I think I could deal with.
WHAT IS THE BEST ADVICE YOU HAVE EVER BEEN GIVEN? Focus on outcomes, processes are unimportant.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE SMELL? Coffee and toast.
WHAT DO YOU DO IN YOUR SPARE TIME? Tinker with old cars, lift weights and play with my dog.
WHAT SPORT DO YOU PARTICIPATE IN/WATCH THE MOST? I compete in amateur strongman competitions and I also watch a fair bit of rugby.
WHAT IS YOU FAVOURITE RECORD/CD/ARTIST/MUSIC? That changes on an hourly basis! If I’m training then AC/DC and Foo Fighters.
WHO WOULD YOU CHOOSE TO SPEND A ROMANTIC EVENING WITH OTHER THAN YOUR CURRENT PARTNER? I’m a newly married man! I can’t answer that.
IF MONEY WAS NOT A FACTOR WHAT WOULD YOU BUY TOMORROW? A 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS in guards red
WHAT TALENT WOULD YOU LIKE TO HAVE? The ability to reduce my e-mail inbox.
WHAT PROMINENT PERSON WOULD YOU LIKE TO MEET? Stephen Fry, would probably be quite an interesting conversation.
WHAT BOOK ARE YOU READING AT PRESENT? Raising Steam, the latest Discworld novel from Terry Pratchett.
WHAT CAR DO YOU DRIVE? An old Skoda Fabia VRs as a commuter car and I have an old 1974 MK1 Escort in Ireland that I brought home from Australia with me. It will only be a matter of time before I buy another old BMW as well.
WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE 10 YEARS FROM NOW? Still a Director at a much larger FoundOcean and living in a nice house in the countryside with lots of room for old cars and strongman equipment.
