As of July 1, 2026, Tom Refsdal has taken over as CEO of Parat Halvorsen, succeeding Yngve M. Halvorsen.

The transition marks an important moment for Parat Halvorsen, as Yngve M. Halvorsen retires after a long and significant career with the company. Yngve has been part of Parat Halvorsen since 1979 and has led the business since 1991. Through more than three decades of leadership, he has played a central role in developing the company into an international supplier of steam and heat systems.

Tom joins the role with more than 20 years of leadership experience from Norwegian business and industry, most recently as CEO of Nordic Door AS. Over the past few months, he has worked closely with Yngve and key people across the organization to gain insight into Parat Halvorsen’s people, products, operations and opportunities ahead.

Tom Refsdal

As Norway’s largest supplier of steam and heat systems, Parat Halvorsen delivers complete solutions to land-based industry and offshore customers worldwide. As part of Babcock Wanson Group, the company will continue to build on its strong foundation in Flekkefjord while contributing to the wider development of energy-efficient and electric solutions for industry.

We would like to sincerely thank Yngve for his dedication, commitment and contribution throughout all these years, and warmly welcome Tom as our new CEO.
