He was the president of the independent oil group Perenco, which produced then more than 240000oilbbl of oil per day.
His polo team, Labégorce, won the Queen's Cup, in 2004. On a journey to Château Giscours, in Margaux to play polo, he learned that Château Labégorce Zédé was for sale. He bought it in August 1989 and went on to become a large wine producer. In 2001, he repurchased the Castle of Abbot Gorsse de Gorsse, in February 2002 bought Labégorce-Zédé Castle, and in June 2006 he bought the Château Marquis d'Alesme Becker.
He was a prominent art collector, mostly focused on paintings.
He died on 29 December 2006 — one month before his 63rd birthday — in a ski touring accident, descending La Dent du Villard near Courchevel.[1]
He was married to Ka Yee Wong, later known as Carrie Perrodo.[2] They had three children,[1] François Hubert Marie Perrodo (born 14 February 1977), chairman of Perenco, Nathalie Perrodo-Samani (born 1980) and Bertrand Nicolas Hubert Perrodo (born 1984).[2]
