"The flagship-operated Edvard Grieg field on the Utsira High has consolidated its position as a host facility, and the giant Johan Sverdrup field has been put into production. The Company has delivered strong results throughout her tenure. She has also built a high-performing team that will be an important asset for the Company moving forwards.

I look forward to working closely with him in his new role of Managing Director, as we continue to build Lundin Energy as one of the leading companies operating on the Norwegian Continental Shelf”.
