President Steve Hanson has been appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Pat Boswell, previously CEO and Chairman of the Board, has transitioned to Chairman Emeritus. In his new role, Mr. Boswell will continue to advise the Company on its strategic plans and work towards their successful implementation. Andy Fisher, formerly Manager Mexico, is the Company's new Chief Operating Officer (COO).

"I am pleased that Steve Hanson has agreed to become our new Chief Executive Officer," stated Pat Boswell. "When he joined IFR as President, Steve was tasked with getting the Company involved in a new project area. As a result of his efforts and our group's incredible teamwork, IFR is now positioned to become a major player in Mexico's unprecedented energy reform. I look forward to my advisory focus and continued role as a Director in what will be a transformational year for IFR."

"As the founder of IFR, Pat has been instrumental in setting up the Company for its current success. The Board and management team would like to thank Pat for his leadership, his past contributions and commitment to IFR," said Gary Lyons, Director of IFR. "Our Board is committed to continuing its mission to be a leader in the Mexican oil and gas industry. These management changes are a critical part of our succession plan and we believe they both broaden and strengthen our team."

Andy Fisher, IFR's new COO, has over 25 years of successful and varied experience in the oil and gas industry.
