Lenox is one of the founding partners of Aqualis Offshore, the original company behind ABL Group—now Longitude’s parent company. A highly experienced structural engineer, Lenox was previously the regional managing director for the group’s energy and marine consultancy branch in Asia Pacific until his retirement in 2023
“I am delighted to welcome Phil into the Longitude fold. He brings invaluable knowledge and experience across marine transportation and installation (T&I) consultancy and a distinguished reputation in the offshore energy space globally. He will be instrumental to the further expansion of Longitude’s legacy service portfolio in marine operations engineering, both technically and geographically,” commented Longitude’s CEO, Jake Anderson
Longitude has been providing expert marine operations engineering, design, and analysis services since its inception in 2006. Its offering supports offshore oil and gas, maritime, offshore wind, and other marine renewable technologies.
The team provides engineering, analysis, and design to support offshore mobilization, marine T&I, moorings, cables, and umbilicals, metocean route and site assessments, and rig operations.
Based in the UK, Lenox will lead Longitude’s global marine operations teams, working in more than 15 countries spanning Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the Americas, and Asia Pacific. As part of his remit, he will also oversee the business line’s further development to support more clients and in more markets.
“Longitude has amassed a great reputation as a go-to and niche international design and engineering house in marine operations. I am eager to apply my market experience and to work with the team to explore ways to expand the technical offering even further. The recent introduction of Longitude’s Brazilian branch, with the acquisition of Proper Marine, offers an exciting new chapter for the team. While it enhances our technical capacity, Proper Marine also gives us an established footprint to support South and Central American clients in marine and offshore energy. I am keen to pursue further growth,” said Phil Lenox, Global Director for Longitude’s Marine Operations business.
Longitude is the design and engineering arm of global consultancy ABL Group. Alongside marine operations, it specializes in offshore wind design, facilities and subsea, and ship design.
