Vitol Group Ltd.’s head of LNG trading is moving the unit’s operations to London from Geneva, as the super-chilled fuel plays a growing role at the world’s biggest independent oil trader.

Pablo Galante Escobar will relocate the desk to the company’s new London office, alongside its top decision-makers including Chief Executive Officer Russell Hardy. London has for years been a hub for LNG trading.
