HRT: More resignations

Following the departure of founder Marcio Rocha Mello in May, Brazil’s HRT has been hit by the resignation of chief financial officer Carlos Tersandro Fonseca Adeodato and chief administrative officer Maria Emilia de Azevedo. Mello was a key figure behind Petrobras’ big pre-salt discoveries offshore Brazil and the company hopes to emulate that success offshore Namibia, though its first well was non-commercial. Other recent departures have included HRT America president Wagner Peres.
