Zeljko Runje has been appointed to the newly created position of Vice President for Offshore Projects at Rosneft. He has extensive experience in this field.
Developing offshore projects is one of Rosneft’s strategic priorities. In the medium term it will contribute significantly to resource base replacement, while in the long term it will become the Company’s key source of production growth. The scale of the challenge of developing offshore oil and gas fields dictates the need to hire and involve the industry’s best.
Since 1997 Runje has held various management positions on the Sakhalin 1 project in his capacity as Vice President at ExxonMobil Russia Inc.
