The Abu Dhabi National Energy Company (Taqa), a publicly listed company on the Abu Dhabi Securities Market, has named Doug Fraser its chief financial officer.
 
Fraser has enjoyed a 27 year career within the Canadian energy industry.  Prior to joining PrimeWest in April 2007, he held senior financial positions at Imperial Oil Limited, Petro-Canada and was most recently vice-president and chief financial officer at Husky Energy Inc. 

Fraser’s main short-term focus will be in the integration of PrimeWest Energy Trust into Taqa North, Taqa’s wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary.

In addition to Fraser’s appointment, two members of PrimeWest’s senior management team, Ryan Wong and David Johnson, will each take on a global remit within Taqa. 

Ryan Wong takes up the role of Group vice-president, treasury, and David Johnson becomes group vice-president of human potential, upstream exploration and production.
 
“Doug‘s depth of experience within the Canadian energy industry will be a real asset to Taqa, in both the integration process and building the business going forward. Today’s appointments are in line with our strategy to acquire quality assets and the best people from key markets around the world,” said CEO, Taqa, Peter Barker Homek. – TradeArabia News Service
