Television presenter and radio host Stephen Mulhern has been confirmed as host of the offshore energy industry’s prestigious annual awards ceremony, taking place in Aberdeen on November 20.
Stephen is known for presenting a range of iconic shows including Dancing On Ice, Deal Or No Deal, Britain’s Got More Talent, In For a Penny, Catchphrase and You Bet. He also fronted the hugely popular Ant vs Dec segment on Ant and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway.
Alongside his television work, Stephen is a regular voice on Virgin Radio, covering for Chris Evans and Graham Norton. An accomplished all-round performer, he has toured the UK with his variety and magic shows, is a BAFTA award-winning magician, and co-creator and producer of P&O Cruises’ exclusive magic and illusion show Astonishing.
Organised by Offshore Energies UK (OEUK) and sponsored by Shell U.K. Limited, the OEUK Awards celebrate the people and companies driving progress across the UK’s offshore energy sector – including oil and gas, wind, hydrogen, and carbon capture and storage.
Held at the P&J Live, the event will once again spotlight the industry’s brightest stars, with more than 120 nominations received this year.
Commenting on the announcement, OEUK CEO David Whitehouse, said:
“We’re delighted to have Stephen Mulhern join us to host this year’s OEUK Awards. His energy, warmth and talent for engaging audiences will make the evening a truly memorable celebration of the people driving our industry forward.
“The awards are about recognising the innovation, commitment and collaboration that underpin the UK’s offshore energy success – and Stephen’s presence will add an extra spark to what promises to be an inspiring night.”
