This is a critical time to maximize the value of these highly strategic assets that safely transport secure supply to the highest demand markets.” Mr. Kvisle has immense chair and director experience from his service on the board of directors of companies including Cenovus Energy, ARC Resources Ltd., Finning International Inc., Bank of Montreal and Talisman Energy Inc. From 2001 to 2010, Mr. Kvisle was President and Chief Executive Officer of TransCanada Corporation, now TC Energy.
