    Hebron: Through the eyes of Rick Brown

    Hebron - by Rick Brown

    In May of 2014, a group of Marine Officers from varied backgrounds came together to form a team: the Marine Officer Teamsters from Local 855 and the Laborers from Local 1208. Together they took on the task of the safe and efficient transport of the staggering numbers of people needed to complete the Hebron project.

    One of those Marine Officers was Rick Brown. He and his colleagues moved passengers from shore to sea with three small vessels: The M.V.Katmar, the Cavalier Royal, and the Cavalier Desmers.

    In October 2016, the team’s efforts in moving people, hit one million passengers transported, and today (summer of 2017) they have transported 1.8 million passengers safely. Rick Brown says, “It has not been without challenges, winds, ice, mechanical issues, but thanks to the professionalism and dedication of all involved it has been successful.”

    Rick Brown clearly has a keen eye for the majesty and beauty of the Hebron project and its surroundings. The OGM has chosen Rick Brown as the “winner” of the Hebron Photo Call, and we’ve published his photographs here for all to enjoy.

    Thanks to all of you ‘people movers’ and Rick, thanks for sharing your great photos. It’s amazing what an iPhone and a good eye can do!

    Tina Olivero

    30 years ago, Tina Olivero looked into the future and saw an opportunity to make a difference for her province and people. That difference came in the form of the oil and gas sector. Six years before there was even a drop of oil brought to the shores of Newfoundland, she founded The Oil and Gas Magazine (THE OGM) from a back room in her home on Signal Hill Road, in St. John’s, Newfoundland. A single mother, no financing, no previous journalism or oil and gas experience, she forged ahead, with a creative vision and one heck of a heaping dose of sheer determination. With her pioneering spirit, Ms. Olivero developed a magazine that would educate, inspire, motivate and entertain oil and gas readers around the world — She prides herself in marketing and promoting our province and resources in unprecedented ways. The OGM is a magazine that focuses on our projects, our people, our opportunities and ultimately becomes the bridge to new energy outcomes and a sustainable new energy world. Now diversifying into the communications realms, a natural progression from the Magazine, The OGM now offers an entirely new division - Oil & Gas Media. Today, The Oil and Gas Magazine is a global phenomenon that operates not only in Newfoundland, but also in Calgary and is read by oil and gas enthusiasts in Norway, Aberdeen, across the US and as far reaching as Abu Dhabi, in the Middle East. Believing that Energy is everyone’s business, Ms. Olivero has combined energy + culture to embrace the worlds commitment to a balance of work and home life as well as fostering a foundation for health and well being. In this era of growth and development business and lifestyle are an eloquent mix, there is no beginning or end. Partnering with over 90 oil and gas exhibitions and conferences around the world, Ms. Olivero's role as a Global Visionary is to embrace communication in a way that fosters oil and gas business and industry growth in new and creative ways.
