DENVER, CO--(Marketwired - Jan 6, 2015) - P2 Energy Solutions ("P2") Board of Directors has appointed Amy Zupon as Chief Executive Officer. Zupon will lead P2's 750+ enterprise software and geospatial data professionals to accelerate the company's strategy of helping upstream oil and gas companies around the globe to optimize their business performance. Zupon's focus on customer success and her experience leading product innovation and global delivery teams will drive P2 to a new level of performance and customer focus. 

The upstream oil and gas industry faces challenges, from driving greater value out of existing production to containing costs in a tightening global market to managing the "great crew change" impacting their workforces. Now more than ever, upstream companies need strong vendor partners and innovative new technology solutions. "Amy has a proven track record of helping customers address their toughest problems through the adoption of software and data solutions. Her laser focus on customer success will be a driving force behind P2's future," said Harry Debes, Chairman of P2's Board of Directors and Advent International Operating Partner.

"I'm excited to continue working with P2's management team and all our employees to execute on our strategy and deliver measurable value and a positive experience to our customers," said Zupon. "We've achieved a lot in the past three years but there is so much more we can do. Working closely with our customers, we will help them navigate today's challenging market environment by delivering technologies that can remove barriers for them and deliver positive, measurable results in their business performance," added Zupon.

Zupon succeeds Charles Goodman who is leaving P2 for personal reasons. "I've been privileged to lead P2 the past three and a half years and feel fortunate to have been associated with such a passionate team of professionals," said Goodman. "We've put in place a clear strategy and strong executive team poised to deliver for P2 customers. Amy is a strong Chief Executive who can lead P2 to its next phase of growth," Goodman added.
