We are pleased that Primax, Drummond Energy, and Parex Resources take this position on the Board because they are companies that represent the commitment to strengthening the sector in Colombia, and I am sure that, under their leadership, the Association will continue to be a strategic ally for the country and we will continue to lead and guide the discussion on the energy transition in the Colombian way.”
