PENGROWTH ENERGY TRUST ANNOUNCES EXECUTIVE APPOINTMENT
(Calgary, April 19, 2005) /CNW/ — Pengrowth Corporation (“Pengrowth”), administrator of Pengrowth Energy Trust (the “Trust”), is pleased to announce the appointment of James J. Emme as Executive Vice President, Pengrowth Corporation and Vice President, Pengrowth Management Limited. In his new position, Mr. Emme will report directly to James S. Kinnear, the President of Pengrowth Corporation, and will have broad responsibilities for the operating activities of Pengrowth Corporation and the business development activities of Pengrowth Management Limited. Pending approval of the executive appointment in accordance with Canadian immigration guidelines, Mr. Emme will evaluate Pengrowth’s existing properties as a geological consultant and will actively support Pengrowth’s business development.
Mr. Emme is a seasoned top oil and gas industry executive with a proven track record of success and leadership over a 25-year career in the oil and gas industry through increasing levels of responsibility in exploration, exploitation, general management and corporate development in North America and internationally.
Mr. Emme received a Bachelor of Science in Geology from the University of California in 1978 and a Masters in Geology from the Colorado School of Mines in 1981. He joined Anadarko in 1981 and held various positions throughout the Anadarko organization over the course of 23 years, including serving as President of Anadarko Canada during 2000-2001 when the company produced up to 93,000 boepd and employed 500 people with an annual capital budget of up to U.S. $400 million. In his final position of Vice President Exploration and Business Development of Anadarko in Houston, Texas, he managed the global exploration program of the company.
During the course of his diverse career with Anadarko, Mr. Emme successfully led exploration activities offshore in the Gulf of Mexico, onshore U.S., Canada, Alaska and Algeria. He also actively participated in strategic mergers, acquisitions and divestitures in the U.S. and Canada. He demonstrated an ability to manage risk while recognizing and capturing impact growth opportunities. As an explorationist and manager, he contributed to Anadarko’s major discoveries in the Berkine Basin of Algeria, deep water Gulf of Mexico, North Slope of Alaska and Bossier Play in East Texas and North Louisiana.
As President of Anadarko Canada, he successfully implemented a growth mandate adding both reserves and production. Over the past seven years, Mr. Emme has had significant exposure to acquisitions and optimizations. In 2001, Mr. Emme oversaw Anadarko’s acquisition of Berkeley Petroleum and he played a key role in the merger and integration of Anadarko and Union Pacific Resources in 2000.
Mr. Emme’s broad management and technical experience will be very valuable to Pengrowth Corporation and Pengrowth Management Limited as additional value is sought from the company’s existing base of assets and as Pengrowth seeks new opportunities to make acquisitions, to identify upside and to execute Pengrowth’s business plan, both domestically and internationally.
