Arunangshu Sarkar to the Oil and Natural Gas Corp board as the company’s first director (strategy and corporate affairs).
The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet (ACC) has approved the oil ministry’s proposal to appoint Sarkar, group general manager (production) at ONGC to the board, the oil ministry said in a communication to the company on Saturday. He will stay in this position until his retirement.
Nearly two years ago, while appointing Arun Singh, a retired BPCL chairman, as the new CEO of ONGC the government decided to restructure the ONGC board to revitalize the organization. The posts of director (offshore) and director (onshore) were abolished and replaced by two new positions of director (production) and director (strategy and corporate affairs) on the board.
Director (offshore) Pankaj Kumar was given the position of director (production) in March 2023 after director (onshore) Anurag Sharma retired. The director (production) looks after the entire operation of onshore and offshore oil and gas fields.
Applications for the job of director (strategy and corporate affairs) were sought in January 2024. Sarkar will look after strategy, business development, joint ventures, new energy, petrochemicals, marketing and IT functions at the organisation.
