Leadership churn in these roles usually means the strategy is shifting. I wonder if this is a move back toward core gas for cash flow or a pivot in how they handle carbon offsets.
Exactly. The real question is whether the low carbon projects under his tenure actually hit their capacity targets or if they were just slide deck promises.
Another executive exit at a supermajor. It is always interesting to see if the replacement is a climate specialist or another oil and gas veteran.
