Faroe Petroleum said today that Jonathan Cooper will take over as chief financial officer on July 1 from Iain Lanaghan.
Mr Cooper will join the independent oil and gas company from engineering firm Lamprell, where he holds the same post.
He is a chartered accountant by training, having qualified with KPMG before joining Dresdner Kleinwort Benson in their oil and gas corporate finance and advisory team.
In 2006 he was appointed as an executive director of Gulf Keystone Petroleum, before joining Sterling Energy plc in 2008, where he was Finance Director.
John Bentley, non‐executive chairman of Faroe Petroleum, said: “I am very pleased to welcome Jonathan Cooper to the board of directors of Faroe Petroleum. His knowledge of the sector and business pedigree is first rate and his appointment strengthens the team as we move to an exciting new phase of growth.”
“I would also like to thank Iain Lanaghan again for all of his diligence and hard work over the last four years in guiding the company into the position of financial strength and sustainability.”
