Longitude Engineering has appointed Nicolas Cazeres as managing director of its operations in the US.
He will oversee the company’s activity in the local market, and in particular in the North American marine renewables sector.
Longitude, part of AqualisBraemar LOC Group, offers specialised engineering, design and analysis services to support the delivery of marine projects at all stages of a project life cycle. It operates in the renewables, maritime, defence and oil & gas sectors.
Cazeres will be based in Boston, Massachusetts, building on ABL Group’s existing renewable energy engineering presence in the country’s North East.
Cazeres takes up his new role following six-and-a-half years as managing director for Longitude in Singapore, overseeing operations in the Asia Pacific region.
“Nicolas was instrumental in establishing Longitude as a leading engineering consultant in supporting Asia’s growing offshore wind market. As the US now eyes up rapid growth of its offshore wind assets from its current 42 MW to the target 30GW by 2030, we look forward to Nicolas bringing his expertise to support this fast-moving market,” said Jake Anderson, managing director of Longitude.
