Marathon's Emerging Technology organization will provide an increased focus on renewable and alternative fuels, energy efficiency, carbon intensity, and carbon capture and sequestration. It also will provide strategic insight regarding emerging technologies across the energy landscape that will identify both challenges facing Marathon's core business as well as new investment opportunities.
"Advances in technology will shape the future competitive landscape and Marathon's newly created Emerging Technology organization will be critical in recognizing, developing and deploying differentiating technologies. As we continue to increase our focus in this area of work, we're fortunate to have Linda join our Company and step into this important leadership position," said Steven B. Hinchman, Marathon executive vice president, Technology and Services. "Linda has an impressive base of knowledge and experience, and I'm confident her contributions will be a valuable addition to Marathon."
