I hope you are as
excited about this as I am, and I look forward to a bright future together.

Ever since the drastic drop in oil prices last year, the global oil and gas industry has been facing a difficult and complicated future. This has inevitably impacted the Group’s Offshore RBU.

In order to continue serving customers and stay relevant to stakeholders, the Group has determined that it is necessary to seek synergies with a similar organisation in order to retain competence and critical mass. As such, it has entered into an agreement with the American-based company xXxXx, Inc. for xXxXx to take over part of the Jebsen and Jessen Offshore business.
With this change, a number of colleagues will get a new employer. The management team is working closely with xXxXx to ensure that the employment transfer proceeds as smoothly as possible and that fair employment terms will be maintained. Unfortunately, it has not been possible to retain all positions and some job roles will disappear. The management understands that this can be very painful to those affected and will ensure that the process is handled with care and fairness.
Have submitted my letter of resignation, had a really wonderful experience throughout the 2.5 years with JJ. Thank you for the opportunity and guidance given to me!
I could only pray and hope for the better with effect from 1st Feb 2017...
