In
March/April, RCP added two new employees to our roster.
Gary Welch, PHD, recently joined RCP as an Executive Consultant. In his
32 years of industry experience, Gary has demonstrated his expertise in several
technical disciplines including nearly all aspects of Health, Safety, Security,
and Environment (HSSE), corrosion research and materials selection, and
production engineering. Dr. Welch has a distinguished background in stress
corrosion cracking research and metallurgical engineering, and has produced
multiple articles for publication on this subject matter. He also has in-depth
knowledge and expertise on complex regulatory and risk-management issues,
having managed large risk analysis and mitigation projects (HEMP Studies, etc.)
for a major integrated oil company. He has developed and / or audited
corporate-level HSSE Assurance Programs and HSSE Management Systems both
domestically and overseas. We are looking forward to his valuable contributions
to RCP and our clients.
Amber Pappas has been working for RCP as a consultant since October,
2009, and recently accepted a position as our Director of Marketing. She will
work on RCP’s external marketing efforts, creating new synergies and
opportunities within our industry. Her hard work and dedication in the area of
public awareness / damage prevention has earned her an excellent reputation, as
she is widely recognized in our industry as an expert on such matters. This,
combined with her 15+ years of marketing and communications experience, will
serve as an added benefit to our clients.
