Upon completion, the spin-off will be a leading provider of a full range of oil and gas production technologies and solutions, wellsite productivity software and IIoT solutions. Soma Somasundaram, President and CEO – Energy Segment, Dover Corporation, is a member of the PESA Advisory Board. He will become President and CEO for the new company upon completion of the transaction. He has 14 years of experience at Dover and has served in his current role since 2013.
