MacArtney Appoints New Managing Director for UK From Own Ranks
LEEA and AWRF Launch a Member Accreditation Programme
Petrobras Extends CGG Geovation Seismic Imaging Software Licensing Agreement for Five Years
MacArtney, the world leader in underwater technology, has appointed 52-year-old Kevin Murray as the Managing Director of MacArtney UK, based in Aberdeen.
Murray has held the position of Sales Director since joining the company in March 2021 and looks forward immensely to taking on a much broader role with the company.
“I’m delighted to be able to take over from Phil, even after such a relatively short time with MacArtney. We have worked closely together, and I have benefited enormously from the gradual transition combining our expertise and knowledge of the industry. At Group level, we have identified goals for the UK. With my background, I can put my efforts into further refining processes and efficiency and strengthen both sales and operations to achieve them. My aim now is to carry on growing MacArtney UK within the fields of offshore energy, ocean science and defence, marketing MacArtney’s world- class products within connectivity, data systems and Launch and Recovery.”

Associated Wire Rope Fabricators (AWRF) has engaged with the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA) to create a Member Accreditation Programme. This initiative creates an exciting opportunity, where AWRF members can choose to go through an additional process that will see them being audited by LEEA. The purpose of this audit is to give them support and assistance in ensuring that they are operating at the highest of levels.
The audit is developed by LEEA according to requirements set out by AWRF. The first wave of AWRF audits is expected to be conducted in the autumn of 2022.
Explaining the drive behind this significant new scheme, AWRF CEO, Jeff Gilbert, said: “Through the Member Accreditation Programme, AWRF members gain a valuable endorsement. They will receive support to improve and progress, while also benefiting from the oversight and feedback of a third party. They get to use a specially created logo to distinguish themselves in addition to accessing some of LEEA’s services to support their development.”
CGG has announced the recent signature of an expanded five-year Geovation software licensing agreement with Petrobras. After benefitting from CGG’s best-in-class seismic imaging platform for over a decade, the new agreement will give Petrobras geoscientists access to advanced technology innovations, including full-waveform inversion (FWI), and significantly enhance their imaging capabilities.
Peter Whiting, EVP, Geoscience, CGG, said: “During our 60-year operating history in Brazil, we have developed a close technology and business partnership with Petrobras which has seen CGG recognized as a key supplier. This latest expansion of our Geovation licensing agreement reflects the strength of this relationship and the significant advantage that our state-of-the-art subsurface imaging technology provides. As the powerhouse behind the success of CGG’s own high-end seismic imaging services, it is the most efficient and reliable software platform for geophysicists working with ever growing data sets and facing increasingly complex imaging challenges, such as pre-salt illumination.”
The new agreement includes expert training from CGG’s GeoTraining team to support the significant increase in the number of Petrobras Geovation licenses, enabling new users to rapidly leverage the software’s advanced seismic imaging capabilities for their projects.
