Awilco LNG names new CFO

Norwegian LNG transportation provider Awilco LNG has named the company’s new chief financial officer.

The company noted that, following the resignation of Øyvind Ryssdal in October last year, the company has found a replacement in Per Heiberg.

Heiberg is set to take his position on April 6, the company said in a statement.

Heiberg comes from the position as CFO in Golden Ocean Group where
over his 15-year career also held the positions as Risk Manager and Vice President Finance.

To remind, last month Awilco reported a loss for the year 2020 of $7.9 million.

The company said that 2021 started on a positive note with continued high spot charter rates although gas prices and rates have seasonally come down from the winter highs.
