HOUSTON – Bob “Sonny” Fogal has decided to retire from front-line work as Zentech’s director of business development after more than 57 years in the offshore oil and gas industry.

He spent his entire career in the rig building business, starting with Levingston Shipyard and subsequent work with major designers and builders in the US as well as Singapore, Japan, China, Brazil, India, South Africa, and the Middle East.

His earliest assignments included engineering, estimating and QA-QC in the shipyard, followed by equal success in construction, projects, yard management, and ultimately sales. He has held memberships in IADC, MTS, SNAME, SPE, and the NOMADS.

Zentech’s President Ramesh Maini said, “All the serious players in our industry know Bob and his many accomplishments. He is clearly among the elite in this group.”
