SAO PAULO, Feb 2 (Reuters) - Brazilian state-run oil
company Petrobras said on Thursday it has tapped
Joelson Falcao to become its new head of exploration and
production, as the company announced a slate of new appointments
as part of a management shake-up.
In a securities filing, Petrobras added that Chief Executive
Jean Paul Prates has also appointed William Franca as head of
refining and natural gas and Claudio Schlosser as head of
commercial and logistics.
Carlos Travassos was named as head of production
development, it added, and Carlos Augusto Barreto as head of
digital transformation and innovation.
The appointments remain subject to internal corporate
governance procedures, a vote by an internal committee and a
discussion at the company's board.
