Two others, Owen Tobias and Candice Gabriel, are coming over from PetroSA. Pulane Kingston joins from the investment company she founded, Sphere Holding. Welcoming them to the firm, Webber Wentzel’s head of oil and gas, John Smelcer, said: ‘Clients entering into and active in the region will be able to turn to a local platform that delivers the quality that they have come to expect from Houston and Aberdeen based firms, but with the understanding and ability to get things done on the ground in the region.’ Source: The Lawyer
