New CFO Kilcullen to lead Diamond S merger

Diamond S Shipping has found a new chief financial officer (CFO) to lead its merger with Capital Product Partners.

The US tanker owner has brought in Kevin Kilcullen from Oslo-listed Team Tankers International, where he has been finance chief for three years.

Before that he was CFO at Principal Maritime, a private equity-backed owner of crude and chemical tankers.

TradeWinds reported last month that the company was head-hunting a CFO ahead of the tie-up with Capital Product.
