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.

—Jeffrey R. Green
Vice President,
Perpetual Energy Inc.

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.

—Wes Morningstar
Chief Executive Officer and Director,
Canlin Energy Corporation.

From day one the team at Iridium has shown a commitment to researching and implementing the best possible solution for Pacesetter’s insurance needs which has met both our unique corporate and operational objectives. Iridium has demonstrated their knowledge of the different products and carriers and has demonstrated their commitment to privacy, confidentiality and discretion concerning the corporate information discussed in transacting with Pacesetter. Further, the Iridium team is committed to providing efficient, accurate support and service on all matters concerning our insurance and risk items as they come up.

—Chad Robinson
Chief Financial Officer,
Pacesetter Directional Drilling Ltd.

The Iridium team is very enthusiastic, knowledgeable and professional, and consistently provides timely and relevant advice regarding insurance and risk management issues that are of importance to Propak. Iridium generated underwriter interest in our account through a strategic marketing exercise that resulted in policy coverage improvements alongside a reduction in premium. Iridium analyzed our insurance program and policies, identifying gaps in coverage and wording improvements and proposing and placing new policies, ultimately optimizing our insurance program. Propak is pleased to be working with such a talented and committed team at Iridium. I wish we had made the change years ago!

—Barry C. Taylor, CA
VP Finance and Administration,
Propak Systems Ltd.

Fraser Surrey Docks is undertaking significant changes to our operations and we were looking for an expert who would work with us to address our evolving risk needs. Iridium’s understanding of our objectives, understanding of our industry and their risk-based consultative process was exactly what we needed. Iridium is incredibly responsive and they have become an invaluable member of our risk management team. The benefits to Fraser Surrey Docks in engaging a dynamic firm like Iridium continue to emerge and we would recommend them as a risk management partner to any of our West Coast peers.

—Leonard Cox
Chief Financial Officer,
Fraser Surrey Docks

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.

—Ron Hozjan, VP Finance & CFO, Aureus Energy Services

I have to say that I am one happy customer. Iridium and NMB have delivered significant value to WesternZagros with the insurance policies that we have had in the past and the support with the claim, and now with a very competitive quote for insurance going forward. I pass on the gratitude of our entire executive team for this support, as I have to say that without your assistance I do not believe we would have achieved the success we have had recently at Sarqala.

—Greg Stevenson
Chief Financial Officer,
WesternZagros Resources Ltd.
