Prior to becoming chairman of ENRC in August 2009, Dr Sittard was Chief Executive Officer of the group.
"In thanking Dr Sittard for his stewardship over the past decade, it is a fact that he leaves a company with excellent assets, talented teams and great optionality in a sector which increasingly rewards those attributes," his successor, Mehmet Dalman said.
Shares in ENRC were up 17.00p, +2.41%, in the afternoon at 722p, on a day when the mining sector as a whole was up 1.1%.
