Craig Wiggins has been appointed managing director of Aker Solutions’ maintenance, modifications and operations (MMO) business in the UK.
Based in Aberdeen, Wiggins will have responsibility for the company’s brownfield engineering capability in the region.
"We're very pleased to welcome Craig on board in this key position," said David Clark, regional president for Aker Solutions in the UK and Africa. "His strong track record in the MMO area and experience from both our customers and the wider industry will bring valuable insight and leadership to a strategically important market for Aker Solutions."
Wiggins joins Aker Solutions from BP, where his most recent role was focussed on delivering efficiencies within their global upstream business. Previously, Craig spent the rest of his 30 year oil and gas career with Shell and Petrofac in a variety of senior operational and business improvement roles.
“I am delighted to join Aker Solutions and lead the MMO business at an important time for the organization,” said Wiggins. “Aker Solutions has a strong client base and an excellent track record in the North Sea. I look forward to the next stage of our development as we build on our excellent customer relationships and deliver key projects for our customers on the UK continental shelf and beyond.”
