Ithaca Energy has appointed a new chief operations officer.
Roy Buchan will take up his new role in January and his appointment follows the announcement John Woods will step down from his role as chief development officer.
Mr Buchan has more than 30 years’ experience in the oil and gas industry and has held many technical and senior management positions in the North Sea for Shell and BG Group.
He worked most recently as technical and production director of Talisman Sinopec Energy UK.
Les Thomas, chief executive officer of Ithaca, said: “We are delighted to welcome Roy to head up the company’s operations organisation.
“He brings a wealth of industry experience and a deep understanding of North Sea operations that will be invaluable as the company prepares for the commencement of production from the Stella development.
“We would also like to sincerely thank John for his contribution to the company over the years and wish him well in the future.”
