Jean-Claude Bourdon founded DOLFINES in January 2000 (Formerly known as Dietswell). He has over forty years of experience in the services to the drilling industry, onshore and offshore. Jean-Claude started his career in 1979 with Schlumberger working in Iraq, Indonesia, Libya, the UAE, Saudi Arabia and UK. He later joined FORASOL-FORAMER where he became General Manager of their drilling subsidiary in Gabon. Prior to establishing DIETSWELL, Jean-Claude was CEO of HORWELL, a well engineering company focused on the then-innovative horizontal and slim hole drilling techniques. As early as 2015, convinced that the offshore expertise of the company would advantageously serve the offshore renewable wind industry, Jean-Claude created a department dedicated to the design of the floating structure Trussfloat to that respect.
