In April, Greg McDaniel was appointed senior vice president, international assets, and will manage UK operations in addition to his role as country manager for the company’s Egypt asset.
McDaniel has been with Apache since 2001 and has served in operational and management roles with increasing responsibilities in the Permian Basin, Canada and Egypt. He previously worked at Chevron Petroleum Company.
Donald Martin has also joined the company as vice president, decommissioning. Martin has 20 years of operations and decommissioning portfolio experience, most recently as the head of decommissioning and projects at Spirit Energy E&P. He has also managed decommissioning at Canadian Natural Resources E&P.

“I am delighted to join the highly skilled and world-class workforce that safely maintains and operates our North Sea offshore assets,” said McDaniel. “I am looking forward to helping the team manage late-life operations and begin planning our decommissioning journey.
“Donald brings a wealth of knowledge to our existing decommissioning team. Together they will utilise their extensive expertise while collaborating with the industry’s outstanding supply chain in the region to retire the Beryl and Forties fields safely,” concluded McDaniel.
