Mikhail Konovalov is a results-driven General Manager with 12+ years of leadership in oilfield services, specializing in perforating systems, shaped charges and manufacturing operations across Russia, CIS and international markets. He has repeatedly grown market share and returned companies to profitability—launching new product lines, securing major clients like Schlumberger and Promperforator, and increasing regional market share by up to 90%. A hands-on engineer by training, he combines field experience in tubing- and cable-conveyed perforating with product development, certification and plant-level manufacturing oversight. He built and scaled cross-border supply chains that cut logistics costs by ~30% and introduced a lower-cost, higher-safety detonating cord that reduced production costs by ~10%. Fluent in technical sales, go-to-market strategy and digital localization, he also contributes to cross-platform mobile tooling (Bluetooth LE PhoneGap plugin) showing practical software interoperability interests beyond core oilfield expertise. Known for pragmatic problem-solving and durable client relationships, he delivers quick, measurable results under pressure.
