“We are delighted to bring someone with Eric’s skill set aboard,” Brock commented. “The depth of his experience in both the finance and water sectors is very complementary to our already strong management bench.” Pedersen added, “The combination of STW’s oilfield and project management capability with GE’s robust technology creates a partnership that can provide truly unique solutions to our customers’ product water challenges. I am very excited to be part of this dedicated and capable team.”
