Golar LNG CEO change

Golar LNG has appointed Iain Ross to replace Oscar Spieler as CEO. His main remit on becoming CEO has always been the successful delivery of FLNG Hilli Episeyo and then to find his successor.

Having substantially executed his responsibility to deliver the FLNG Hilli Episeyo, Oscar will remain with the group and fulfil the role of Executive Advisor and assist Iain until charterers Perenco and SNH accept the FLNG Hilli Episeyo.

The Board of Golar wishes to thank Oscar for his crucial role in conceiving the project, the progress to date and ultimately delivering this transformational project so close to schedule and within budget.

Iain joins Golar most recently from project delivery firm WorleyParsons, where he held various executive level positions since 2002 including Group Managing Director, Development, an ExCo position with responsibility for leadership of the Global Hydrocarbons, Power, Infrastructure and Mining Sectors; the development of the group Strategy, Mergers & Acquisitions (including integration of acquired companies) and finally as leader of the Digital Technology start-up.
