Tangiers appoints MD

Tangiers Petroleum Limited has appointed David Wall as Managing Director with immediate effect.

“As a leading oil and gas equity analyst for the past six and a half years, Mr Wall brings extensive experience with junior oil and gas companies, with a particular focus on Africa. His skillset spans asset evaluation across many fiscal regimes / play types as well as corporate advisory / M&A and equity capital markets, having led more than $300m in capital raisings,” Tangiers said in a statement.

Prior to his career as an analyst, Wall managed a small team at Woodside Petroleum Ltd that reported to the Executive Committee. This team was responsible for vetting reports from all departments within the business, prior to Board submission, including exploration, development, operations, commercial and M&A. The team was also responsible for generating the annual budget and providing significant input into the Five Year Plan and the Company Strategic Plan.

“By virtue of these experiences, Mr Wall brings strong commercial and strategic skills as well as generalist knowledge across all levels of the oil and gas industry. This is complemented by financial markets experience focussed on junior exploration companies, with specialist African knowledge,” Tangiers added.

Wall holds a Bachelor of Commerce from the University of Western Australia, majoring in Management and Finance. The appointment of David followed the screening of multiple applicants across the industry by an independent specialist recruitment agency.

Tangiers Petroleum Limited is an ASX and AIM listed exploration company which has a potentially world class oil asset located in Morocco.
