Whats the differns between me and others
Experience meets innovative spirit
With over 15 years of experience in oilfield technology, I combine knowledge with creative approaches – for solutions that are both technically sensible and practical.
Age = Strength
At 42 years of age, I bring life and professional experience, also comes together maturity, calmness, and decisiveness for complex and critical missions.
Independent advice – neutral and honest
My recommendations are based on technical workability rather than sales interests – this builds trust and saves costs.
Passion for innovation with a grounding attitude
I focus on proven technologies, which I bring together with innovative ideas – always with a focus on safety, efficiency, and success.
Broad practical knowledge
I do work on drilling rigs – both onshore and offshore. Therefore, I know how solutions have to prove themselves in reality – not just on paper.
Interdisciplinary approach
I see projects holistically – from technical planning and tool selection up to operational performance.
Reliability & hands-on mentality
I get things done, work in a solution-oriented manner, and remain calm and focused even in difficult situations – qualities that count deeply.
Lets overcome challenges together
Whether you need support with complex fishing or P&A projects, looking for independent advice on tool selection, or need practical solutions for specific situations – I am at your side with experience, expertise, and innovative thinking.

I support service companies in developing and optimizing of tools – in a practical, inventive, and market-driven way.
