NLNG Appoints Another Shell Executive As MD/CEO
The
Board of Directors of the Nigeria LNG Limited on Thursday approved the appointment of Mr. Tony Attah as the new Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the company.
Mr. Babs Omotowa, who has held the position for nearly five years, is returning to Shell International in The Hague, Netherlands, according to a statement signed by the company’s General Manager, External Relations, Kudo Eresia-Eke.
The NLNG said Omotowa, who was appointed CEO by the board in December 2011, would be sorely missed for his uncommon vision, professionalism, compassion and commitment.
The company said Attah, a former Managing Director of Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company, would be taking over from Omotowa after returning from an assignment at Shell’s Group Integrated Gas business as senior project advisor, working on projects in the Netherlands and Singapore.
