REGINA – On Feb. 14th the Petroleum Technology Research Centre (PTRC) and its board of directors announced the appointment of Ranjith (“Ran”) Narayanasamy as the company’s new president and chief executive officer.

Narayanasamy comes to the PTRC from SaskPower after over 16 years. He has a somewhat different perspective on carbon capture and storage. You see, he spent some time in India speaking about and promoting SaskPower’s efforts in that regard. And India happens to have more than 180,000 megawatts of coal-fired power generation
