It was farewell to Paddy Rodgers the tanker industry executive and hello to Paddy Rodgers the museum curator last week, as Euronav marked 15 years as a public listed company.
Rodgers, who stepped down as Euronav chief executive earlier this year, hosted an event to mark the anniversary on the historic tall ship Cutty Sark in London.
Around 200 guests were ferried down the Thames from central London on a chartered riverboat and entertained on the famous vessel, which is part of the Royal Museums Greenwich complex, where Rodgers was unveiled earlier this month as the surprise choice for its next director.
