Why IES exists

Good technology does not sell itself across borders

Across West Africa and the North Sea, ageing assets and rising regulatory demands are creating a real need for integrity, reliability and safety solutions. Many of the technologies that could help are already available. What they lack is a credible, on-the-ground route into the markets that need them.

IES was set up to provide that route: to find the opportunity, make the right introductions and represent the technology properly, so that technology providers and OEMs can enter new markets faster and operators can see solutions they would not otherwise find.

Founder profile

Munachi Patrick-Iwuji

Founder & Managing Director

Munachi is a mechanical engineer and business development specialist with more than 13 years in oil and gas. His career has covered the overhaul and repair of rotating equipment, asset integrity engineering support for North Sea operator assets, and business development across Europe and Africa.

That mix matters. Technology providers and OEMs get a representative who understands their technology and can discuss it credibly with engineers and maintenance teams. Operators get someone who understands the problem on their asset before talking about a solution.
