Technical Manager Pipelines & Flowlines, USA
Paul is based in 2H’s Houston office and leads our subsea pipeline and flowline projects globally. He has over 25 years’ experience in the oil and gas industry and extensive expertise in pipelines, flowlines, subsea structures, advanced engineering and integrity management.
Paul holds a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering and structural mechanics, a PhD in structural engineering, and a master’s in business administration (MBA). He also holds a Professional Engineering (PE) license in Texas, is a Chartered Engineer and a fellow of the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST), the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), and the Energy Institute (EI). He is also a Chartered Manager and a fellow of the Chartered Management Institute (CMI). Paul has held senior positions at companies such as MCS Kenny/Wood, JP Kenny/Wood, Pond & Co., Kiefner and Associates, and his own venture, The Jukes Group.
Paul has published over 130 papers, both as author and co-author, in advanced analysis for the design of subsea pipelines & components and was also co-author for an ‘Encyclopaedia of Maritime and Offshore Engineering’ for Wiley books.
Senior Project Manager, Houston
Elizabeth is the Senior Project Manager of 2H’s Houston office, with over 20 years of experience in riser design, subsea structural monitoring, and subsea integrity management. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Business from Texas A&M University.
She has led major subsea and riser projects, including integrity programmes, FEED studies, and the development of drilling riser capabilities, as well as supporting offshore wind initiatives. Elizabeth also spent 15 years as Director of the Perth office, where she played a key role in developing the office and expanding local project delivery.
In her current role, she leads engineering projects and provides technical oversight on drilling and completion riser scopes, structural monitoring, and subsea integrity management.
2H provides engineering-led integrity and pipeline engineering services for onshore and nearshore assets—helping operators manage regulatory demands, reduce risk, and solve complex technical challenges with defensible analysis and practical recommendations.
Our team combines advanced engineering expertise with integrity workflows and digital data management to help clients move beyond data collection toward confident, traceable engineering decisions.
Onshore pipeline operators face increasing expectations for integrity management, traceable records, and repeatable engineering justification, particularly where infrastructure is aging or operating near populated areas, industrial facilities, and coastal environments.
2H supports operators with independent engineering assessments, detailed analysis, and practical solutions that improve reliability, support compliance, and inform integrity decision-making throughout the asset lifecycle.
Engineering support for integrity management and fitness-for-service assessments, including:
Free span assessments
Fitness-for-service evaluations
Local finite element analysis (FEA)
Fracture mechanics assessments
In-line inspection (ILI) support and engineering review
Vibration and fatigue assessments
Specialist engineering support for LNG and cryogenic pipeline systems, including:
Cryogenic pipe-in-pipe (PIP) engineering
HDD interface engineering
Independent technical reviews and verification
Installation and constructability support
Engineering services for pipelines operating in transitional coastal environments, including:
Shore crossing engineering
HDD versus open-cut installation assessments
Nearshore routing and feasibility studies
