SINGAPORE, Jan 20 (Reuters) - Top Asian oil and gas producer PetroChina has swapped the portfolios of two top trading executives in a management reshuffle, sources with direct knowledge of the matter said on Wednesday.
The personnel changes, aimed at keeping managers fresh with new challenges, are not likely to alter in a significant way the business strategy of PetroChina’s flagship trading vehicle China National United Oil Corp, or Chinaoil, which has reaped record profits in 2020, the sources said.
Zhao Yong, previously president of Chinaoil and who started as one of the firm’s founding crude oil traders some 26 years ago, has, since November, become the general manager of PetroChina Fuel Oil Co Ltd.
