Chimaobi Desmond Anyaso, the President of Oil Rigs Resources Limited, a seasoned professional marketing expert with years of experience in the oil and gas industry. He is an alumnus of Ebonyi State University, from where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and Literature and possesses a Master’s Degree in Management at the University of Lagos, Petroleum Marketing Management from Atlas University, Philadelphia. He was awarded a Certification in Executive Management Development from the Peter J. Tobin College of Business at the St. John’s University, Manhattan, New York.

After graduation, he worked variously at Emline Nig Ltd., South Globe Ltd., Traqui Ltd., and Geo Bureau de Change, where he picked up immense expertise and in the process, made considerable positive impression on peers and employers alike. His stint at Aquitane Oil and Gas Ltd was particularly significant in establishing his reputation as an upwardly mobile young man of the oil sector. By 2006, he felt sufficiently proficient in the workings of the industry to resign from Aquitane and form his own company, Oil Rigs Resources and its subsidiaries. It was an ambitious and quite risky move by any means, given his young years, but it was to prove ultimately profound and somewhat providential given the speed with which the new concern was to grow. In no time, Guvnor oil and gas had secured a pride of place in the country’s ‘Ivy League’ of petroleum conglomerates.

​The company has since generated a turnover in excess of $1 billion, consulting for such international companies as Addax and Vitol and engaging with such renowned multinationals as Total, Mobil, Oando, AP, Wabeco.
