Pursuant to APPEA’s Constitution, Directors are required to retire every two years on a rotational basis and may stand for re-election at that time. In addition, Directors must also retire and may stand for re-election if they were appointed to fill a casual vacancy during the year.
This year, nine (9) vacancies have arisen from the 16-member Board. These vacancies will be filled by nomination and by election if required, with the results to be announced at the APPEA Annual General Meeting on 18 November 2021.
Retiring Directors are:
- Frank Calabria, Origin Energy (retiring due to rotation)
- Ian Davies, Senex (retiring due to rotation)
- Kevin Gallagher, Santos (retiring due to rotation)
- Shiva McMahon, BHP (retiring due to casual vacancy)
- Anthony Nunan, Shell Australia (retiring due to rotation)
- Meg O’Neill, Woodside Energy (retiring due to rotation)
- Dylan Pugh, ExxonMobil Australia (retiring due to casual vacancy)
- Eric Streitberg, Buru Energy – (retiring)
- Casual vacancy created by the retirement of Moto Desaki
Nominations are therefore called to fill the nine (9) vacancies on the APPEA Board. If the number of nominations is more than the number of vacancies to be filled, an election by ballot of all Full Members must take place. Voting closes at 12 midday AEDT on 16 November 2021.
