Hans Henrik Klouman

Senior vice president, legal and general counsel | Statoil

About

Not many GCs make the transition to CEO, but even fewer make the transition back again. Before joining Statoil, Hans Henrik Klouman spent four years as CEO for SEB Enskilda. The lure of Norway’s largest oil company saw him leave the role to become general counsel and senior vice president legal, elevating him to an esteemed position in the country’s legal community. On his appointment, Klouman said Statoil was the only company where leaving a CEO role could be considered a promotion. He has served in the role since 2011, holding responsibility for all legal matters related to the Statoil Group’s business and corporate activities in addition to ethics and anti-corruption matters. In 2017, Klouman was involved in overseeing a number of contract awards with counterparties in Brazil, the UK and Norway. In a busy 2017, he also helped facilitate the acquisition of an additional 12.5% stake in the Dogger Bank Off shore Wind development. Between 1994 and 2007 he was executive vice president and general counsel of Storebrand.
