In AGR, we are truly inspired by Roald Amundsen with his innovative ideas, devotion, discipline and hairy goals. Following in his footsteps of Amundsen, we aim to offer even better and more innovative services and solutions to our customers. Here, we present some facts about Roald Amundsen, and how AGR relate to them:

Experience
"In the race to be first to the South Pole, Roald Amundsen knew the value of experience. He lived with the Inuit to learn their survival secrets. It helped him to conquer the Pole and lead his team safely home."

There’s no substitute for experience. AGR’s track record inspires confidence: 400 wells in ten years. 1,000 reservoir studies in five years. 500 wells benefitting from our Enhanced Drilling Solutions. Experience is essential when it comes to ensuring projects run as smoothly as possible.

Innovation
"In the race to be first to the South Pole, Roald Amundsen was innovative in his approach. His outerwear modeled on the furs the Inuit wore, improved sleds, and the way he built and provisioned three camps along the route, all showed this."

AGR is innovative. From our step-change EC-Drill™ Managed Pressure Drilling system to our pioneering multiwell, multiclient rig campaigns, AGR adds value through innovative solutions and services.

Risk reduction
"In the race to be first to the South Pole, Roald Amundsen left nothing to chance. He placed high-visibility markers for miles around his primary base. This reduced the risk of his team getting lost."

AGR manages risk. From our P1™ probability software to the vast experience of our Well and Reservoir Management team; from the safety-adding technologies such as RMR™ and MPC™ to finding the right people for the task with AGR Consultancy – risk reduction is at the heart of our solutions and services.
