Wikipedia description:
Sir Ian Clark Wood (21 July 1942 – 26 July 2026) was a Scottish billionaire businessman. He was best known for his work in the North Sea oil industry with Wood Group, which he was largely responsible for transforming from a company of modest size, serving a primarily local market, to a large corporation with operations in over 50 countries. He served as Wood Group's chief executive from 1967 to 2006, and as chairman until 2012. Wood was one of Scotland's wealthiest people, with an estimated net worth of around £1.7 billion (2020). In 2007, Wood and his immediate family set up The Wood Foundation, a venture philanthropy organisation.
