About the company:
Oliasoft develops cloud-native engineering software for designing, planning and constructing wells for oil and gas, carbon capture and storage (CCS) and geothermal energy.
Our first product, Oliasoft WellDesign, was launched in 2020. By automating time-consuming work processes and combining AI with advanced, physics-based simulations in areas such as thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, we make well planning more efficient and more accurate.
Following several commercial and technological breakthroughs, we are now entering a new phase of growth. Interest in our solutions is strong, with customers such as Equinor, Vår Energi, Harbour, and Tullow, and we are expanding the platform to serve a growing international customer base. That's why we're building the team that will take Oliasoft to the next level.
