Board designation and management changes
Litigation and general update
The Board of Urals Energy (AIM: UEN), the independent
exploration and production company with operations in Russia,
announces various Board role and management changes, along with a
litigation and general update.
Board changes
Mr Leonid Dyachenko, who is presently an Executive Director of
the Company and has held the position of CEO previously, will
become interim CEO with immediate effect. This appointment will
allow Mr Sergey Uzornikov to concentrate on his continuing role as
the Company's CFO. Mr Uzornikov is not a member of the Board.
Mr Sergey Kononov, the representative of Adler SA, the largest
shareholder of the Company, is to become the President of the
Russian management company, Urals Energy LLC. Mr Kononov is a
shareholder and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Transnational
Bank, a Moscow based bank. As President of Urals Energy LLC, Mr
Kononov will report directly to the Board but it is not currently
intended that he will be appointed as a Director of the
Company.
Dr Vassily Dyviatov, who has a PhD in Geology, and has been a
consultant to the Company, is to be appointed as Vice President of
Urals Energy LLC, responsible for Exploration and Production.
Litigation and general update
As previously announced, the Company expects to be able to
conclude a settlement agreement with Mr Viatcheslav Rovneiko
shortly. The management team are finalising the Company's
development plan for 2015, adjusting this for the changing
circumstances in the markets. Based on work carried out to date,
the Board currently believe that the fall in the rouble exchange
rate will significantly offset the impact of a lower oil price on
the Company which, the Directors believe, will minimise the impact
on the Company's cash flow.
Mr Shrager, Chairman of Urals Energy, said: "It has become clear
over the last few months that the combination of roles under Mr
Uzornikov was placing too much on his shoulders and the Board are
grateful to Mr Dyachenko for agreeing to take on the role of
interim CEO. We welcome the involvement of Mr S Kononov in the
management of the Company in Russia at a time when financial
markets are particularly difficult. Mr Dyviatov brings much
experience in oil exploration and production, and already is
familiar with the Company's operations."
