New Zealand Oil & Gas (NZOG) has appointed a new chief executive to replace David Salisbury who resigned earlier this year due to personal reasons.
Andrew Knight will move from a non-executive director position within the company to become chief executive on December 1.
The company said it had received
strong interest for the role from candidates within New Zealand and overseas.
Knight is currently a director of Powerco, and several privately held companies, NZOG said.
He has also held senior executive roles with Vector, Natural Gas Corporation and The Australian Gas Light Company as well as roles with Fletcher Challenge Energy and Coopers & Lybrand.
