Iridium earned our business through their fresh, consultative approach to helping us manage the risks faced by our business every day. Iridium was able to identify gaps in our insurance and risk management program and bring innovative, thoughtful solutions to the table while being cost conscious through the process. Iridium is indispensable to any oil and gas producer as their availability and expertise in risk management and insurance has us deem them as a partner versus a service provider.

We can always count on Iridium to be available at a moment’s notice. Whether it be to discuss a random insurance related topic, review a contract, or request documentation for board level meetings, they always deliver regardless of timing. Iridium has been great at bringing forward ideas, issues and solutions that have helped Perpetual build a better insurance program. They also introduced us to a new marketing strategy of building direct relationships with the underwriting community. Not only did it pay dividends at the time Iridium first became our broker, but it has continued to do so in subsequent renewals. Their professionalism, ability to speak on a technical level and refreshing style are all big reasons why our firms continue to do business.

Through the last two companies I’ve been involved with, I have partnered with Iridium for the last 10+ years. They continue to impress me with their energy industry expertise and unique focus on managing the broad spectrum of enterprise risks that energy companies face. They currently provide Aureus with year-round prompt support and valuable risk advice integral to our fast-paced and geographically spread-out operations. Iridium has been a great advocate for Aureus in the insurance marketplace and has helped us navigate the challenges of our company’s growth, cost-effectively. They also routinely take time to meet and educate members of our team on insurance coverages and industry leading risk management practices. Aureus considers Iridium a valued risk management advisor and have integrated them into our team. We highly recommend them to any company.

We have an expectation at Enerplus for accuracy and timely service. We also require our Broker have legal & policy expertise and the technical resources to enable us to fully manage our portfolio of risk exposures. Iridium has not only delivered and exceeded our expectations in each category, they have also shown a commitment to my team and to our organization that goes far beyond the standard scope of services.
