Aegean Marine Petroleum has confirmed the appointment of Adrian Tolson [pictured] as managing director of its subsidiary Aegean Oil USA LLC.

According to Aegean, Tolson has been tasked with developing "new physical supply locations" and also "assist in the marketing of Aegean as it continues to both grow and expand its footprint worldwide".
