Royalite Petroleum, an oil and gas exploration and production company, has appointed Norris Harris as its new chairman and CEO.
Mr Harris has considerable experience over the past 50 years in founding and restructuring of oil and gas companies, and in oil and gas drilling and operations. He was founder and president of Gulfport Oil & Gas, Texas Arkansas Petroleum Company, Centex Oil & Gas, and Basin Exploration.
He has considerable international oil and gas exploration experience as a geophysicist with Mobil Oil where he worked in Turkey, Austria, Holland, England (North Sea) and Nigeria.
