As Adura, an incorporated joint venture (IJV) of the UK’s Shell and Norway’s Equinor, continues making progress in securing regulatory approvals, the two energy heavyweights have unveiled the name of the JV’s chosen Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

After disclosing the creation of Adura in December 2024, following the decision Equinor and Shell made to combine their UK offshore oil and gas assets into a new incorporated joint venture, the two companies have revealed the appointment of Neil McCulloch as Chief Executive Officer and Nicoletta Giadrossi as Chair of their offshore UK incorporated joint venture.
