Technip Energies has announced a planned transition of its Board of Directors, with Board President Joseph Rinaldi set to retire following the company's 2026 Annual General Meeting. The energy services company has proposed John O'Higgins, currently serving as Chairman of Elementis plc, to assume Rinaldi's position upon his departure.
In a parallel move, the company has put forward Luc Rémont, the former Chief Executive Officer of French utility company EDF, as the proposed successor to Francesco Venturini on the board. Both candidates are expected to commence their roles as board censors prior to the 2026 AGM, allowing them to familiarize themselves with the company's operations and governance structure during the interim period.
The staggered appointment approach ensures continuity in leadership and provides a structured transition timeline for the multinational energy engineering company. These nominations are subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting.
