Irish creative studio, The Studio of Possible, has been appointed by offshore wind and marine survey specialist, Sulmara, to support the business's next phase of growth through strategic positioning, brand storytelling and communications. The partnership spans brand strategy, positioning, digital, social, live experiences and commercial communications, with the work focused on helping Sulmara evolve from a traditional survey-led narrative towards a more future-facing position centred around seabed intelligence. Operating within the rapidly expanding offshore wind and marine infrastructure sector, Sulmara is increasingly positioning itself not simply as a business that gathers seabed data, but as a strategic intelligence partner helping clients make smarter, faster and more confident decisions across offshore energy projects. The appointment reflects growing demand within industrial, energy and engineering-led sectors for stronger strategic communications, clearer differentiation and commercially-focused brand positioning as businesses compete for investor attention, talent and market share in increasingly crowded categories. Founded in Dublin in 2021, The Studio of Possible works at the intersection of strategy, creativity and commercial growth, helping organisations clarify their value, strengthen market positioning and communicate more effectively across digital, brand and experience-led channels. The studio identified an opportunity to help Sulmara move beyond the conventional language commonly used across the offshore survey category, where many businesses communicate in similar terms around vessels, surveys, operations and data capture. Instead, the partnership focuses on developing a clearer and more differentiated narrative around intelligence, innovation and future offshore decision-making. Séamus Begley, founder and creative director at The Studio of Possible, said: "We're incredibly excited to partner with Sulmara, a business operating at the forefront of offshore wind and marine innovation. "As the renewable energy sector continues to evolve at pace, there's a growing need for companies driving real technical progress to communicate their value, vision and impact with greater clarity and confidence. "Sulmara has built an impressive reputation within the industry and our role is to help sharpen how that expertise is articulated across the market. "We believe strategic storytelling and positioning have an important role to play in supporting the future growth of offshore wind, helping businesses not only stand out commercially, but also connect more effectively with investors, partners, talent and the wider industry." Work to date has centred on helping Sulmara communicate its longer-term commercial ambition and innovation story more clearly, supporting the business as offshore wind matures from an emerging sector into a major global infrastructure and investment category. Miek King, Head of Global Sales at Sulmara, commented: "We were looking for a partner that could understand the complexity of our work, while also helping us communicate the bigger commercial value behind it. "The Studio of Possible immediately recognised that Sulmara's role goes beyond traditional survey work and has helped us build a clearer, more future-focused narrative around seabed intelligence, innovation and the role we play in supporting smarter offshore energy decisions." According to The Studio of Possible, branding and strategic communications are becoming increasingly important within technical sectors, where businesses are no longer competing solely on operational capability, but also on clarity, confidence, investor appeal and future relevance. Looking ahead, the partnership will continue to support Sulmara across brand, digital, social, events, investor communications and commercial storytelling as the business strengthens its position within the offshore wind and marine technology space. A podcast with Seamus Begley will be up so...

If you work in engineering, operations, projects or leadership within energy, this episode matters because modern assets rely on connected systems more than ever. When those systems fail, are poorly understood, or are left exposed, the impact can be operational, financial and safety related. In this conversation, I speak with Tim Canning about careers in ICSS, OT cyber security, mentoring, problem solving and how technical people can stay valuable as the industry evolves. Tim shares how he moved from the Air Force into the energy sector, built deep expertise in control and safety systems, and later transitioned into OT cyber security before it became a mainstream discipline. We also discuss the realities of working on live plants, handling pressure, and why broad technical curiosity can open doors throughout a career. What stood out to me most was Tim's honest view on growth. He talks about when staying with one company can work, when it may be time to move on, and why learning adjacent skills can future proof your career. He also speaks openly about trust, mentorship and helping the next generation develop confidence in high pressure environments.

If you're building a career in the energy sector, this episode matters because it challenges how you think about progression, company choice, and long term direction. We often hear that success means moving companies, chasing titles, or maximising salary but this conversation looks at a different path: staying, growing, and making deliberate choices based on values, not just opportunity.In this episode, I speak with Michel Durand, Director at EDF, who shares what it looks like to build a 30+ year career within one organisation while still gaining diverse experiences across nuclear, overseas operations, and leadership roles. We talk about career decisions, working abroad, and how to assess whether a company is right for you not just on paper, but in reality.What stood out to me is how much of a career comes down to trade offs between risk and stability, salary and purpose, or staying versus leaving. There isn't one “correct” path, but there are better decisions depending on what matters to you.

If you're a student, graduate, or early career professional trying to find your place in the energy sector, this episode matters because it breaks down what actually drives career progression beyond qualifications and job titles.In this conversation, I speak with Mona Setoodeh, an LNG specialist and Vice President, about how careers are really built in this industry from mentorship and self advocacy to hiring decisions and team dynamics.What stood out to me is that progression isn't just about technical ability. It's about how you position yourself, how you think, and how you show up in the room especially when it feels uncomfortable.We also get into the reality of interviews, what hiring managers are actually looking for, and how to create long term opportunities rather than just chasing the next role.
The Structural Shift is how the capital is going to be allocated, either in new pipelines, or getting coal plants out of mothball storage, or even developing your country's energy sources. Net Zero has hit a wall, and energy security is taking center stage. We have David Blackmon, Mike Ariza, and Professor Mische on the podcast tomorrow covering the 7 huge Executive Orders President Trump is rolling out. 1. Structural Shift in Capital Allocation (Energy Sector)The conversation explores how investment patterns in the energy industry are changing, with capital moving toward pipeline infrastructure and away from traditional routes like the Strait of Hormuz. This reflects broader concerns about energy security and the need for self-sufficient energy systems.2. Coal ResurgenceA significant theme is the unexpected comeback of coal as an energy source. Despite previous commitments to phase out coal, demand is increasing in Europe and Asia, with coal plants being restarted or kept operational. This challenges the "net zero" movement and highlights the continued reliance on fossil fuels.3. Iran Conflict and Energy Market DisruptionsThe transcript discusses how geopolitical tensions, particularly involving Iran, create vulnerabilities in global oil supply chains. The Strait of Hormuz is a critical chokepoint, and disruptions there could cause significant price spikes and market volatility.4. U.S. Energy Dominance and ExportsThere's emphasis on the U.S. position as a major energy exporter—including coal, oil, and gas.

Energy Sector Heroes ~ Careers in Oil & Gas, Sustainability & Renewable Energy
If you're building a career in energy whether you're just starting out, considering a move, or thinking about going out on your own this episode matters because it shows what a real career path can look like when it doesn't follow a straight line.In this conversation, I sit down with Nigel MacLean, Managing Director of Entuergy, who shares how he moved from offshore technician to running his own consultancy, working across both traditional oil & gas and newer energy projects.We talk about career transitions, how skills carry across sectors, and what actually happens when you step into self employment in the energy industry.What stood out to me is how much of a career is shaped by decisions made at uncertain moments redundancy, switching paths, or taking opportunities that weren't part of the original plan. Nigel also speaks openly about the realities of building a business, from finding work to managing growth and staying relevant in a changing energy landscape.There's also a strong message here for anyone worried about the future of energy jobs the work is still there, but it may not look like it used to.
