EOG Resources has promoted Jeffrey R. Leitzell to executive vice-president of exploration and production, joining the headquarters executive management team effective immediately.

Leitzell has been vice-president and general manager of EOG’s Midland, Texas office since December 2017, responsible for operations in the Delaware Basin located in west Texas and southeast New Mexico. In his new role, he will be responsible for EOG’s Midland, Denver and Artesia operating areas.
