Range Resources announced that, after almost 20 years of service which included the discovery and development of the Marcellus Shale field, Jeff Ventura plans to retire from the company effective June 2 and will not seek reelection to the board. Range’s board of directors has selected Dennis Degner, the company’s executive VP and COO to assume the role of president and CEO effective at the company’s annual shareholder meeting May 10.
