Canadian Overseas Petroleum Limited (LSE:COPL, CSE:XOP, OTC:VELXF) has appointed Atul Gupta as a non-executive director.
"I am delighted that Atul has agreed to join the board,” said COPL chair Thomas Richardson.
“He brings very valuable experience across multiple skill sets including reservoir engineering. Understanding the dynamic nature of the BFU reservoir has been our biggest challenge to date.”
