Mr. Ross Clarkson, founder and past CEO and President of TransGlobe, decided not to stand for re-election at this year’s shareholder meeting. Mr. Clarkson has had a longstanding, positive collaboration with the senior management and the Board of Directors. His decision to not stand was driven by the preliminary voting results of the shareholders at the upcoming AGM.
From Randy Neely, President & CEO, and Director:
“On behalf of the Board and Management, I would like to personally thank Ross for his nearly three decades of strategic leadership and commitment to the organization he founded. Ross was instrumental in stewarding TransGlobe Energy through many challenges and successes with integrity and vision. Under Ross’s leadership and guidance, TransGlobe transformed from a start-up exploration company to a 13,000 boed producer with two profitable business units in Egypt and Canada, an unlevered balance sheet and well positioned to participate in stronger commodity prices. Having the founding CEO on the Board of Directors was an invaluable resource for me and Ross’s deep expertise, along with his sage advice, will be sorely missed by everyone at TransGlobe.”
