“This new structure positions us to better serve our customers, optimize our operations and strengthen our leadership team for continued success,” said Chief Executive Officer Paul Danos. “Now is the right time to begin the next phase of our transformation. Going forward, our structure reflects our primary businesses – project services and production services.”
The project services business, which includes fabrication, coatings and insulation, industrial and mechanical construction, maintenance, instrumentation and electrical, scaffolding, and rope access, will continue to be led by Jon Boudreaux, a member of the Executive Team since 2024 and president of Performance Energy Services, a Danos company.

“We are confident that Reed will provide the expertise and guidance needed to enhance our operational efficiency and move forward toward our long-term growth objectives in these businesses,” said Paul Danos.
A 20-year industry veteran, Pere has a demonstrated history of strong leadership. He joined Danos in 2006, received the company’s Staff Employee of the Year award in 2012, and previously served as vice president of production services, vice president of business development and vice president of projects.
