Luthais McCash, Chief Executive and Scientific Officer of Sigma Solutions, as been recognised for the second year in a row by the Royal Statistical Society (RSS) with a prestigious fellowship.
What is RSS?
Founded in 1834, the RSS is one of the world’s leading organisations advocating for the importance of statistics and data. They have more than 10,000 members in the UK and across the world and they advocate for the key role of statistics and data in society, including policy formulation and informed decision making informed by evidence, for the public good.
Why have we been awarded the fellowship?
Luthais McCash was first conferred an RSS fellow in May 2020 for his novel work on advanced modelling and optimisation in the energy sector, particularly focusing on oil & gas. He crafted, implemented, and deployed solutions revolutionising the trading and efficient delivery of LNG by lowering cost 10x. He optimised LNG delivery networks to meet demand during the UK's 2019 "Beast from the East" storm to ensure fuel was available for power generation, as well as ensuring, through better network management, that costs were maintained at reasonable levels or, in some cases, reduced.
He has been re-elected a Fellow of the RSS in June 2021 and he has also been an Honorary Fellow at the University of Leicester from 2019-2021.
