Mr. Perez said. "SRC’s Methanol Superstorage solution, in particular, is a testament to the company's forward-thinking and innovative approach. Working for a company that advocates for alternative fuel solutions and green technologies is incredibly motivating. I am eager to contribute to these groundbreaking projects and can’t wait to see the impact it will have in the industry."
Mr. Perez identifies key challenges in the offshore and marine industries, including environmental issues, economic instability, cyber threats, and climate change. He foresees substantial progress in decarbonization, sustainability, and global warming mitigation within the next 5-10 years. "These initiatives are crucial for both SRC and myself. I am committed to leveraging my technological and managerial expertise to advance SRC’s sustainability goals and help our customers implement effective solutions for environmental improvement," stated Mr. Perez.
Mr. Perez emphasizes the importance of establishing strong, trust-based relationships with clients and stakeholders. His approach is rooted in integrity, reliability, and effective communication, ensuring that promises are kept, and client needs are met. "Building strong client partnerships is essential. We aim to go beyond more a mere vendor by consistently delivering added value and pave the way for future solutions to meet our clients' needs," he explained.
