Noble Energy, Inc. Presents at Citi's Global Energy and Utilities Conference, May-14-2013 02:05 PM. Venue: Hyatt Regency, One Avenue De Lafayette, Boston, Massachusetts, United States. Speakers: David L. Stover, President and Chief Operating Officer.

Noble Energy, Inc. announced that it has enhanced its organizational structure to support the material growth it is anticipating over the next several years, as well as to continue the development of its senior leadership team. The new organizational structure has been designed to better align business units with common activities by taking advantage of natural synergies and to better balance responsibilities to facilitate growth. The new structure includes three major operating regions: U.S. Onshore; Eastern Mediterranean; and U.S. Gulf of Mexico (GOM), Africa and Frontier. Included in the U.S. Onshore region will be the Company's rapidly growing unconventional horizontal developments in the Marcellus Shale and DJ Basin, which should help facilitate the rapid transfer of best practices and learnings between these areas. The Eastern Mediterranean has become a very material region on its own requiring focused senior leadership as a result of Tamar recently coming on stream and several future projects being planned for offshore Israel and Cyprus. The combined U.S. GOM, Africa and Frontier region allows the Company to focus on its very material deepwater operations while preparing for the impacts of exploration success in the new areas it will be testing. Other significant changes include the creation of a Global Operations Services organization and a Corporate Development group. In addition, two senior advisory positions to the CEO and COO have been established to work with the new leadership teams to ensure performance remains best in class, to provide continuity of partner and government relations and to ensure execution of key strategic initiatives. Gary W. Willingham, previously vice president of Strategic Planning, Environmental Analysis and Reserves, will serve as senior vice president for the U.S. Onshore region. J. Keith Elliott, previously vice president of Operations Services, will serve as senior vice president for the Eastern Mediterranean region. Susan M. Cunningham, previously senior vice president of Exploration and Business Innovation, will serve as senior vice president for the U.S. GOM, Africa and Frontier region. She will continue to also lead the Company's business innovation initiatives. Willingham, Elliott and Cunningham will all directly report to David L. Stover, President and COO. John T. Lewis, previously vice president of the Southern Region, will serve as senior vice president for Corporate Development and will report to Davidson. Charles J. (Chip) Rimer, previously vice president, West Africa, will serve as senior vice president for Global Operations Services and will report to Stover. Rodney D. Cook, previously senior vice president International and Ted D. Brown, previously senior vice president Northern region, will serve as senior vice presidents and advisors to the President and the CEO.
