Chevron has appointed Beatrice Bienvenu as its Country Manager for Namibia and West Africa, tasked with leading the company’s exploration activities in the region.
Bienvenu recently visited Windhoek in her new capacity, meeting with leadership from the Upstream Petroleum Unit in the Presidency, the National Petroleum Corporation of Namibia (Namcor), the Petroleum Training and Education Fund (Petrofund), the US Embassy, and other key institutions.
“It was a privilege to travel to Namibia as Chevron’s new Country Manager to meet our key stakeholders,” she said.
“It was an honour for me to share our positive experience in Namibia and highlight some of the factors that make the country attractive for investment. We see exploration and future development of energy resources as a pathway for prosperity for Namibia. I’m excited to continue our partnership for many years to come.”
Bienvenu joined Chevron in 2010 and has held various roles, including seismic specialist, offshore drilling, and resource appraisal. She has also served as Manager for the company’s Pipeline & Power Control Center in Houston, overseeing the safe and reliable remote operations of its US federally regulated pipelines, and as an advisor for its International Exploration division.
She holds a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, with a minor in Management Science, and a Master of Science in Geophysics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
