During those years the shipyard group established an unblemished reputation for quality construction and on time delivery while at the same time consistently outperforming its sister divisions in profitability, innovation, and productivity enhancing management techniques - specifically, largely due to my efforts we were the second shipyard in the U.S. to introduce in 1972 computer controlled cutting of steel ship parts in the production of medium size vessels. Software Systems Development In 1984, I transferred to headquarters and directed a company wide effort to develop and integrate the technical and business software systems of the entire offshore marine construction group of McDermott International. Concurrently, I directed the automation of its fabrication facilities (1984-85) and oversaw the first implementation of the CADCAM software systems as well as supervised the selection of the hardware platform configuration to deliver the products in-house. These software systems and automation tools contributed strongly to the survival of the company's engineering and fabrication entities through the very tough competitive environment of the eighties and nineties. Between 1985 and 1988, I initiated a worldwide marketing effort of the in-house developed CADCAM systems and establishing McDermott's first efforts to penetrate the deepwater floating production/extended well test systems. I performed extensive global market survey of the economic feasibility of commercializing these two segments of the offshore business and recommended a business plan that resulted in significant profit contribution from two major projects. Simultaneously, I camed out preliminary business development efforts in the Soviet Union for on -shore petrochemical/offshore marine construction market. Marketing and Business Development As a result of these marketing efforts, I was asked to establish McDermott's first business office in Moscow and accelerate the company's business development efforts in the USSR. During those years I was responsible for the initial development phases of the Sakhalin II project, the first of that country's offshore marine construction . projects to reach field production McDermott's equity interest in this project was sold in 1997 to Marathon Oil Company and Shell Oil Company, the present day operator The project is now in its full development phase. During the course of my residence in the USSR, I established excellent working relations with the various energy ministries and participated in the joint venture negotiations that led to the successful completion of several major projects. In particular, I was primarily responsible for establishing the company's presence in Azerbaijan where, with Amoco as partners, we obtained the exclusive negotiating rights to the development of the Azeri Field offshore project in an open international competition in 1991. During that year and the following year, I negotiated the first protocols of intent and joint ventures with Shelfproekstroi and Kasmorneftegas for the joint operation of its fabrication and shipyard facilities. The Azeri field was consolidated during its negotiating phase into the Azeri Chirag Guneshli (ACG) Field, presently in its full development phase by Azerbaijan International Operating Company (AIOC).
