Johan, who took up his new role on 1 October, spent 18 years at ExxonMobil, where he held various positions across finance and trading.
Announcing his appointment, Oilchart said it will seek to leverage Johan’s experience so that the company can continue to further expand in niche markets focusing on blending multiple grades and bio products.
