Arnold Steenbakker“Our growth strategy is to leverage our existing products to new clients, regions and markets. To this end, we are going to establish an Advisory Board, which will consist of external industry and technical experts to assist the InterDam management in the implementation of this strategy. I am very pleased that Arnold Steenbakker will be joining this board,” says Berend Groeneveld, CEO at InterDam. Mr Steenbakker has thirty-three years of experience in the oil and gas industry. He worked for twenty-two years at Fluor Corporation, seven years for Fugro as Chief Operating Officer and Chairman of the Management Board and four years as Chief Executive Officer for Stork.

“Over the course of my career in the oil and gas industry, it has always been a priority to me to create a safe workplace by focussing on occupational health & safety and process safety. I was impressed by the performance of the InterDam products under extremely harsh conditions, including maintaining structural integrity after exposure to a fire outbreak after an explosion.” says Mr Steenbakker. “With an efficient delivery model and a continuous focus on innovations that impact life cycle cost and weight savings, the company is well positioned for growth. I am pleased to be associated with InterDam’s creation of an even safer workplace for people working in fire and explosion-sensitive environments,” Mr Steenbakker concludes.

InterDam is currently the only supplier in its field that conducts single sample tests on its post blast products, duly certified to ensure they will safely withstand an explosion and any subsequent fire outbreak.
