Jan 20 (LNGJ) - The Center for LNG (CLNG) in Washington DC has named Charlie Riedl as the Executive Director of the trade association representing liquefied natural gas producers, shippers, terminal operators and developers.  In addition to appointing an executive director, the boards of the CLNG and the Natural Gas Supply Association have approved and implemented the CLNG's merger with the NGSA.  As Executive Director, Riedl will lead the CLNG in its advocacy and public education initiatives and encourage public policies that recognize and support LNG's contribution toward economic growth in the United States. CLNG Chairman Richard Lammons, a senior executive at Chevron, said: "Joining the two associations exponentially increases the effectiveness of both organizations and gives CLNG an even stronger platform for its advocacy and education efforts. We believe Charlie will do a great job."
