Santos CEO signals potential 2028 exit as chairman departs first

Santos chief executive Kevin Gallagher has signalled he intends to lead the oil and gas group until at least 2028 to guide it through the next stages of major projects, outlasting chairman Keith Spence who announced he would step down next April.

The two have worked closely at Santos, with Spence as chairman since 2018 and Gallagher chief executive since 2016.
