David Walters
Global Director, USA
David Walters
Global Director, USA
About
After two years at 2H’s London office, David relocated to the US in 1998 to establish the Houston office to meet the demands of Gulf of Mexico deepwater developments. His focus since then has been the development and growth of 2H, globally as a principal director and locally in Houston, where he remains jointly responsible for the management of the office along with Mike Campbell. He has detailed knowledge of steel catenary risers having been involved in projects like Chevron Tahiti, Jack St. Malo and LLOG Delta House. David is a Chartered Marine Engineer, holds a master’s degree in civil engineering from Surrey University, UK, and has over 24 years’ riser engineering experience.
Alex Rimmer
Director, UK
About
Alex joined 2H Offshore in 2004 and has been a UK Director since 2011, based in 2H’s London Office. He is jointly responsible for 2H’s European offices and engineering activities across the EMEA regions.
Alex is a Chartered Engineer with the IMechE and holds a first-class Master of Engineering degree from the University of Bath. He has over 20 years of project execution and management experience developed at 2H and in previous roles.
He is a recognised subject matter expert in dynamic subsea system analysis and engineering and provides technical oversight and consultancy to a broad range of deep and shallow water energy projects. He specialises in all types of drilling, completion and production riser systems, as well as platform well and subsea well systems. For the past 5 years, he has primarily been driving forward 2H UK's floating wind (coupled analysis, power cables, moorings and anchor piles) and CCUS well activities, but continues to support the projects in oil and gas as well.
He has been involved in many challenging and innovative offshore subsea and renewable developments. His energy sector highlights include BP’s Block 31 PSVM and Total’s Kaombo hybrid riser detailed designs, Total’s West of Shetland UK subsea development and many of Aker BP’s well platforms in Norway. Renewable energy highlights include support to industry initiatives with ORE Catapult on floating wind HV power cables, and several pioneering wave energy and floating wind platforms and developments.

Insights
An evolving industry requires a new resourcefulness
The oil and gas industry of today continues to change. 2H’s clients need an independent partner who can understand the issues and think creatively. Our unrivalled domain knowledge means we can find new solutions to optimize performance, extend life, reuse infrastructure, reduce costs and improve the environmental footprint.
Inventive, practical solutions for the most complex projects
We have a reputation for pushing the boundaries of known technology and existing methodologies to develop inventive, practical solutions. No matter what your biggest challenge is, we have the tools, knowledge and experience to figure it out.
Holistic systems engineering approach
We don’t look at your system or component in isolation or have a cookie-cutter approach. Instead, our goal is to develop the optimal solution. We consider every aspect of the project lifecycle from design to fabrication, delivery to installation, and operations to maintenance to get it just right.
Making offshore operations cleaner and greener
We are helping clients on their path to net zero by improving the efficiency of existing conventional energy production & operations to reduce carbon emissions. This means incorporating renewable power sources such as using sea water intake risers to improve power generation efficiency and help reduce carbon emissions emission.
