Tullow
Ghana
Limited
(“TGL”)
has
announced
key
changes
to
its
leadership
team.
After
four
years
as
Managing
Director
in
Ghana,
Wissam
Al-Monthiry,
will
be
leaving
the
company
at
the
end
of
July
2024,
to
pursue
a
new
career
opportunity.
Wissam
has
been
instrumental
in
leading
the
organizational
transformation
of
the
Ghana
business
and
the
delivery
of
key
projects
such
as
the
Jubilee
South-East
project
–
which
have
been
fundamental
to
Tullow’s
success
over
the
last
four
years.
Jean-Medard
Madama,
currently
the
Director
for
Tullow
Plc’s
Non-Operated
portfolio
and
Exploration
Business
unit,
takes
over
in
an
interim
capacity
in
Ghana
from
July
1
until
a
permanent
replacement
is
announced.
Jean-Medard
is
an
experienced
business
leader
with
extensive
technical
expertise
gained
over
three
decades
in
the
oil
and
gas
sector
in
various
operational
and
leadership
positions
across
Africa,
Europe,
and
North
America. As
a
former
Country
Manager
for
Tullow’s
Gabon
business,
Jean-Medard has a deep
understanding
of
Tullow’s
business
and
future
strategy,
and
his
experience
will
be
invaluable
for
the
proposed
optimisation
plans
for
the
TEN
field
and
further
growth
opportunities
in
the
Jubilee
field.
Rahul
Dhir,
Chief
Executive
Officer
of
Tullow
Oil
Plc,
commented
today:
“Wissam
has
been
instrumental
in
the
operational
turnaround
we
have
achieved
in
Ghana
and
the
progressive
localisation
success
stories
we
have
recorded
so
far.
Due
to
his
deep
technical
knowledge
and
extensive
business
leadership
experience,
Wissam
has
made
substantial
impact
during
his
time
at
Tullow,
and
we
are
of
course
sad
to
see
him
leave.
We
wish
him
well
and
remain
grateful
for
his
significant
contributions
to
Tullow.”
Wissam
Al-Monthiry,
Managing

the
last
four
years,
we
have
chalked
several
successes,
working
with
all
our
stakeholders
to
achieve
the
operational
turnaround
in
the
Ghana
business.
Whatever
success
I
achieved
during
my
time
is
attributable
to
the
hardworking
colleagues
I
worked
with.
I
would
like
to
thank
the
Tullow
Ghana
team
for
all
their
support
and
assistance
and
wish
them
all
the
best
for
the
future.”
Jean-Medard
Madama,

of
Tullow

commented:
“I
am
looking
forward
to
building
on
the
strong
foundations

and
the

in
Ghana
to
ensure
that
Tullow
continues
to
play
a
key
role
