March 9 (LNGJ) - Nor-Shipping, the annual trade fair held in Norway since 1965, said it hired Karen Algaard in the newly created position of Director of Nor-Shipping Operations and Strategy. Algaard, who moves from the shipping company Höegh LNG where she was Head of Contract Management and Controlling, will now work alongside Per Martin Tanggaard, who assumes the title of Director Nor-Shipping External Relations. 

   “The move allows Tanggaard to focus on building Nor-Shipping’s standing and influence within the marketplace, while Algaard takes on both long-term strategic planning and day-to-day business management,” said the trade fair company. Nor-Shipping will take place in 2020 on June 1-4. 

The countdown has begun for the Gastech Exhibition and Conference, the largest LNG and natural gas industry gathering of 2017 and taking place from April 4-7 at Chiba, north of Tokyo.
