The CEO of Argeo Steps Down, Company Begins Search for New Leadership

The chief executive officer of Norwegian surveyor Argeo, Trond F. Crantz, has stepped down from his position with immediate effect. The company announced that Crantz resigned from the role to dedicate his time and focus differently.

According to an Oslo Bors filing, the Argeo board will initiate a structured process to identify the next permanent CEO. In the interim, Jan P. Grimnes, the company’s chairman of the board since April 2021, will serve as the chief executive.

“Argeo’s standing as a professional and reputable provider of specialised subsea services, delivering fast and flexible full-lifecycle services to industry-leading clients with a truly global presence, is in no small part thanks to Mr. Crantz’s good efforts,” said Grimnes.

“But as Argeo is now entering a new strategical phase of operations, further expanding within both the asset and service sphere, Argeo is equally in need of new competencies and resources to expertly navigate the Company through new waters,” he added.
