The general partner has appointed new members to the Board and new executive officers, reflecting the new ownership structure and strategic direction of the company.
The merger, which was completed recently, has resulted in Chevron owning approximately 37.8% of Hess Midstream on a consolidated basis. As part of the changes, John B.
