Tom – a colleague and friend who will be missed Tom left behind a very real legacy, which will affect the way our industry do things for a very long time to come. All of us who knew Tom and worked alongside him will remember him with great affection. There is no doubt that Tom was special – his technical expertise was respected globally on all continents. Tom and I were very lucky. Our business took us to some of the most remote places on earth with experiences that could only be dreamed of.  We have lost a unique and extraordinary engineer, and I have lost my best friend.  Our prayers go to his wife Hazel.
