Mike Rentfrow, president, Blue Boat Subsea
Rentfrow shares his story of how he is transitioning into wind energy after working in the oil and gas industry for 29 years. He spent the majority of his time underwater installing pipelines and parts of off shore wells.
Rentfrow explains how his path became directed by the emerging social engineered renewable market, government intervention into the marketplace and foreign influences with global energy policies.
Prior to 2020, Rentfrow worked primarily in oil and gas. Over the past two years he has seen his business contracts and bids shift to 80% wind and only 20% oil and gas. Rentfrow adds that most of his oil and gas work is decommissioning off shore wells and pipelines.
Rentfrow emphasizes his respect and passion for oil and gas, however the reality of the marketplace has directed his livelihood towards the transition into renewable energy, specifically wind.
