Strathcona Resources Ltd., one of Canada’s rapidly growing oil and gas companies, has announced a significant leadership change as CEO Rob Morgan steps down. This move comes as the company reorganizes to maintain a lean operational structure while continuing its expansion in the competitive oil market.
Rob Morgan, who has been with Strathcona since its inception in 2020, will retire at the end of October. His leadership has been pivotal in transforming Strathcona from a junior oil firm into Canada’s fifth-largest oil producer. Morgan’s experience includes roles at Crew Energy Inc. and Harvest Operations Corp., and he previously served as CEO of Cona Resources Ltd.
In his place on the board, David Roosth, managing director of the Waterous Energy Fund, will step in. This transition marks a significant shift in the company’s leadership as it aims to streamline operations and enhance accountability.
Strathcona is moving away from a single executive team model to a more decentralized approach. The company will now operate through four distinct business units, each led by its own president. This change is designed to improve focus and performance across various asset areas, including:
Each unit will report to the newly promoted COO Dale Babiak and CCO Connie De Ciancio, while CFO Connor Waterous will retain his position. This structure aims to empower unit leaders to take full accountability for their performance while keeping higher-level decisions centralized.
Executive chairman Adam Waterous emphasized that these changes represent a “logical evolution” for Strathcona. He stated, “While Strathcona has grown significantly in recent years, our aim is to maintain the same mindset we had as a start-up: lean, focused, and accountable for our performance.” This strategic vision reflects the company’s commitment to agility and efficiency in a challenging market.
The leadership shakeup comes just over a year after Strathcona went public through the acquisition of rival Pipestone Energy Corp. This all-share purchase was part of a broader strategy to solidify Strathcona’s position in the oil industry, which has seen production levels average an estimated 185,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day this year.
As Strathcona Resources embarks on this new chapter, the company aims to leverage its restructured leadership and operational model to navigate the complexities of the oil market while continuing its growth trajectory. The focus on accountability and performance at the unit level is expected to enhance the company’s responsiveness to market demands and operational challenges.
