AGR Well Management Division in Norway Gets New Boss

AGR has appointed Tore Øian to lead the company’s well management business in Norway.

Øian has over 20 years experience in the oil and gas industry and has managed drilling projects for operators including Statoil and Det norske.

Svein Sollund, AGR’s chief executive, said: “We have been providing well management support to our clients in Norway for over ten years and have worked on various drilling projects ranging from the first time licensee, multi-client rig campaigns to development and production well delivery projects.

“Tore is hugely experienced and knows the company well both as a previous client of us and as part of AGR’s integrated well delivery team. His immediate priorities in the new role will be to use his decades of experience to further shape a nimble and competitive well management proposition on the Norwegian Continental Shelf combining our flexible contracting models and in-house access to technical skills and software tools covering the entire supply chain of upstream.”

Øian has a degree in petroleum engineering from the University of Stavanger and will be based in Stavanger.

UTC 2017

The subsea industry has, as all other parts of the oil & gas industry, been seriously rattled by the most severe downturn in the hydrocarbon energy era. However, the realization of what hit us and actions to be taken to sustain a healthy and profitable future is still on-going – unfortunately with thousands of colleagues paying the price by losing their job as one of the most severe consequences. At this time, there are signs that we have reached bottom in terms of most industry indicators, but few experts expect a sharp recovery. Many seem to believe that a slow recovery is what the industry needs in order to avoid an unsustainable capacity build-up, as seen in the period after the financial crisis. Considering the uncertainty of what the future will bring, this year’s UTC Program Committee have decided to challenge all of us to present ideas, experiences, technological innovations, business models and execution models for how to shape our subsea future and explain how and why subsea is the future.
UTC welcomes abstracts based on the topics listed below. If selected, please consider writing a paper in addition to the UTC presentation. From 2017, UTC papers will be published in an international database.
