An accomplished marine and subsea executive with more than two decades of leadership experience across offshore energy, vessel operations, subsea services, and complex project delivery. As the General Manager of Corporate and Strategic Development at Bhagwan Marine, Peter plays a central role in shaping the company’s national growth strategy, major project positioning, and engagement across Australia’s evolving offshore energy landscape.
Throughout his career, Peter has led high‑risk, high‑complexity marine operations spanning offshore construction, FPSO support, ROV and diving activities, inspection/maintenance/repair (IMR), port services, and specialised vessel deployment. His deep operational grounding, combined with strong commercial and strategic capability, has positioned him as a respected figure in Australia’s marine and subsea sector.
Peter’s experience directly supports the emerging demands of offshore decommissioning, where he has been actively involved in shaping capability development, industry partnerships, and workforce strategies. He brings a practical and strategic perspective to decommissioning challenges, including late‑life asset management, marine assurance, heavy‑lift and towing operations, subsea isolation and removal, environmental compliance, and integrated vessel solutions.
In addition to his executive role, Peter represents Bhagwan Marine on the Logistics and Skills Council Board, contributing critical industry insight on workforce development, future maritime skills, and the capability uplift required to support large‑scale decommissioning programs across Australia. His involvement in national industry delegations, including representing Bhagwan at SPE Offshore Europe 2025 as part of the WA Government’s Invest & Trade mission reinforces his profile as a trusted voice on offshore marine operations and energy transition pathways.
Peter speaks regularly on topics including:

Marine and subsea capability requirements for safe, efficient decommissioning
Workforce readiness and skills development for the next wave of offshore projects
The role of vessel operators in energy transition and late‑life asset strategies
Collaboration models between operators, contractors, regulators and training bodies
The future of Australia’s marine services industry amid large‑scale decommissioning demand

With a long track record of operational excellence, strategic leadership and industry advocacy, Peter brings a grounded, solutions‑focused perspective to one of the offshore sector’s most complex and rapidly growing domains: responsible, cost‑effective, and safe decommissioning.
