Unity Appoints New Wells Manager to Support International Growth Plans

Unity has appointed Ian Retalic to the new position of Wells Manager. Ian will be responsible for senior client relations and international growth, expanding the global application of Unity’s well integrity, intervention and P&A solutions.

Ian joins Unity from his most recent role at Altus Intervention where he was Business Development Manager for eight years, successfully growing the company’s global provision of well intervention and technology services. His strong technical, commercial and leadership skills have been honed over 35 years of working for leading operators and service companies. This includes an impressive line-up of positions as Senior Well Services Supervisor for the Brent Field at Shell; Senior Well Operations Engineer and Wells Project Manager for Baker Hughes; Drilling Supervisor and board level Director of Business Development, Marketing and Sales at Leading Edge Advantage and Global Product Line Manager at Lloyd’s Register.

Ian (pictured right) says: “Unity has positioned itself as a leader in its field with a valuable and unique industry offering. I’m excited to be playing my part in its ambitious growth plans and to be helping operators to benefit from the company’s progressive well integrity, intervention and decommissioning solutions.”

Stuart Slater, Technical Sales Director at Unity (pictured left), welcomed Ian to the team saying: “Ian’s senior level expertise is a great asset and his industry knowledge and practical approach are already proving to be an excellent synergy. I’m sure he will hit the ground running and I’m looking forward to working with Ian as we invest in the strategic growth of our Wells, Decom and Innovation business streams across new geographic and energy sector markets.”

Ian’s appointment to the sales team at Unity follows the appointment of wells and decom specialist Dillan Perras to the board in January.
