DNO International Announces Executive Changes
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Oslo, 28 December 2012 -- DNO International ASA ("DNO International"), the
Norwegian oil and gas company, announced today that its long-serving Managing
Director, Helge Eide, is stepping down effective 31 December 2012.
"After almost 17 years at DNO International, including the past 13 years as
Managing Director, it was time to make way for a new generation of leadership,"
said Eide. He noted that he originally considered leaving his position in 2011
but extended his tenure to help navigate DNO International through its
transformative merger with RAK Petroleum PCL that became effective early this
year.
Bijan Mossavar-Rahmani, DNO International's Executive Chairman, said he accepted
the decision with great reluctance but deep appreciation for Eide's dedicated
service to the Company. "Helge leaves his position on a high note as 2012 has
shaped up to be DNO International's best year ever by so many operational,
financial and governance measures," he added.
DNO International has instituted a search for a replacement and in the interim
has named Bjørn Dale, its General Counsel, to the additional position of Acting
Managing Director.
Under Eide's termination agreement, he will continue to advise the Company on
strategy and business development.
