Management changes at Golar LNG

Since May 2020, Mr Staubo has been the Chief Executive Officer of Golar LNG Partners LP, recently successfully sold to New Fortress Energy. Since September 2020, he has also been acting as Chief Financial Officer of Golar.

Mr Staubo has a broad shipping/energy background from Clarksons Platou Securities (2010-2018) and Magni Partners (2018-2020).

The board of Golar LNG has also appointed Eduardo Maranhao to take over Mr Staubo’s role as Chief Financial Officer of Golar. Mr Maranhao has been supporting Golar in different functions since 2015, including as Chief Financial Officer of Golar Power/Hygo Energy Transition Ltd until its recent sale to New Fortress Energy. Prior to joining the Golar group, he was the Chief Executive Officer of CELSE.

Mr Maranhao has vast experience in international energy projects and infrastructure financing having worked at different financial institutions including Lakeshore Partners, Santander, Credit Agricole, Banco Votorantim and Citibank.

Golar’s Chairman, Tor Olav Troim, said: “The board is very pleased by the new management appointments. Both individuals have deep knowledge about our company, they are good leaders, have strong work ethics, dynamic minds and have delivered solid value to the group over the last years. Together, with the rest of Golar’s management and board, we are convinced that the company has a strong management team ready to stream-line Golar’s existing operations and also explore the opportunities we see in the LNG market today. Through the company’s strong strategic positions through the LNG value chain, including upstream, midstream, and downstream, Golar is well positioned to take an active part in the ongoing energy transition with the target to deliver cheaper and cleaner energy.”
