As we approached our first renewal with Iridium, I was extremely impressed by the team’s operational technical expertise in helping us construct an insurance program most suitable for our risks and their ability to clearly and concisely explain everything as we went through the process. The Iridium team were able to negotiate a fair price for Battle River, in a tough market, and was always quick to respond to any questions we had. Our first renewal went much smoother than I ever could have expected, and we really enjoyed working with them.

We were impressed with the depth of research and analysis Iridium preformed in determining our operational exposures and regulatory insurance requirements. Iridium developed and executed an intelligent marketing strategy which resulted in a competitively priced insurance program that reflected our exposure needs. We now consider them to be our partner in risk management.

Iridium provides us with the guidance we need to ensure we have the proper coverage for our business. Iridium goes beyond the traditional broker role enabling us to explore different and new avenues that helped identify and address our various risk exposures.

—Marcia Elaschuk, CMA
Controller,
Divestco Inc.

We engaged Iridium as Crescent Point’s risk management and insurance partner because they encouraged us to take a big-picture view on risk. Their collaborative and analytical approach enabled us to gain a better handle of our exposures and allowed us to put rigour around our many risk-improvement initiatives. Iridium impresses our team with their ability to develop intelligent risk solutions and they have more than delivered on their promise to be our strongest claims advocate. Without question, I would recommend Iridium as a risk management partner to anyone.

—Steve Downing
Manager. Risk and Treasury,
Crescent Point Energy Corp.

Over the many years that we have worked with Iridium they have continuously impressed us with their energy industry expertise, broad insurance market penetration and unfailing enthusiasm. We are particularly pleased with Iridium’s inventive attitude and strong relationships within the insurance industry which have resulted in the quick and above expected closure of several complex claims. Iridium has proven to be an important value adding partner to our organization and we look forward to a continued relationship in the future.

—Michael Makinson, CA
VP Finance & CFO,
Strathcona Resources Ltd.

The team at Iridium is professional, approachable and knowledgeable. Prior to the sale of our business, insurance was managed by an internal risk management corporate group. Iridium was engaged to establish insurance coverage within a short period of time for the standalone business. Iridium was intimately involved in proposing solutions to mitigate risk and brought significant cost savings to our business. Iridium is a true risk partner for our business; providing education and training, expert contract review and risk assessments, along with a strong understanding of our company’s exposures and insurance coverage.

Canlin Energy Corporation.
