Turra Limited is set for expansion with the appointment of Mr. Isikeli Taureka as Chief Executive Officer and Mr. David Wereh as Deputy CEO.
The announcement was made recently by Chairman Sir Robert Igara, who expressed confidence in the new leadership team.
Turra, a joint venture between Laba Holdings and Hides Gas Development Corporation (HGDC), was established in 2020 and has since undertaken various civil construction and maintenance projects for the ExxonMobil LNG plant near Port Moresby city.
Chairman Igara highlighted the extensive technical, management, and leadership experience both Mr. Taureka and Mr. Wereh bring to their roles, emphasizing their potential to drive Turra’s growth. He also acknowledged the contributions of outgoing CEO John Calame, who played a key role in shaping Turra from a startup into a company now positioned for significant expansion.
“Keli (Isakeli) brings a wealth of experience in the oil, gas, and geothermal sectors, having held senior executive positions both nationally and internationally,” Sir Robert stated.
“David, on the other hand, has played a pivotal role in major infrastructure projects, particularly roads, during his 15 years with the Department of Works and Highways, where he most recently served as Secretary.”
Meanwhile Mr. Taureka, who also serves as CEO of Laba Holdings, has been instrumental in Laba’s transformation since 2021, spearheading its new lineup of joint ventures, including Turra, Hebamo, Laba International, and Papuan Sea Pilots.
