Apr 3, 2025 7:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time

DENVER–(BUSINESS WIRE)–BKV Corporation (“BKV” or the “Company”) (NYSE: BKV) today announced it has appointed Dilanka Seimon as Chief Commercial Officer, effective immediately. In this newly created role, Seimon will be responsible for strengthening the Company’s commercial midstream, gas marketing and new products teams, leveraging its carbon capture, utilization and sequestration (“CCUS”) portfolio and strong tailwinds in power demand.

A seasoned global energy executive with over 20 years of expertise across the energy value chain, Seimon has held strategy and commercial leadership roles across the upstream and midstream energy industries, driving strategic transformation and growth at companies spanning production, consumption, trading, and transportation of diverse energy commodities. He brings a proven track record in developing midstream assets, marketing upstream portfolios, advancing low-carbon initiatives, and large-scale contract negotiations and stakeholder engagement.

“Dilanka has broad, highly relevant experience within publicly traded companies identifying strategic and commercial opportunities, successfully setting and managing market development and expansion expectations with key stakeholders through multiple stages of growth,” said Chris Kalnin, CEO of BKV. “His extensive background in advancing markets for gas, power and carbon, combined with his strategic vision, will be critical as we aim to strengthen BKV’s position in the upstream, midstream, carbon capture and growing power market with a focus on driving long-term value. We all look forward to working with him in building upon BKV’s strong foundation for growth.”

Most recently, Seimon served as Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer at EnLink Midstream (NYSE: ENLC), responsible for businesses across gathering, processing, transport, storage and terminal services in the oil, gas, NGL, and carbon segments. Prior to EnLink, he served as Vice President of Alternative Energy at Energy Transfer and as Vice President Sales and Marketing at BHP, leading teams responsible for logistics and marketing of BHP’s global oil, gas, NGL, and LNG production portfolio, as well as energy procurement for BHP. Previously, he held various roles in natural gas trading, marketing, and origination.

Seimon is a graduate of the General Management Program at Harvard Business School. He also received a Master of Business Administration from Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business and a Bachelor of Science in Economics from Georgia College & State University.

“I strongly believe in BKV’s market opportunity to advance its vision of delivering sustainable energy across the fast-growing gas and power markets,” said Seimon. “The company’s market-leading platform for the safe and profitable production of carbon neutral natural gas is well-positioned for scale-up and I am very excited to join BKV’s executive team to help drive superior execution in the years ahead.”
