TNK-BP Board Mulls Chief

The board of TNK-BP will discuss the position of chief executive at a meeting on Sept. 22, Viktor Vekselberg, one of the shareholders, said Monday in the Kremlin.

Vekselberg declined to elaborate.

Mikhail Fridman's term as interim chief executive of the Moscow-based oil venture, 50-50 owned by BP and a group of billionaires, was extended beyond a January deadline, while his approved successor Maxim Barsky has remained deputy chief executive.
