Extreme Receives another Prestigious Award
Extreme Engineering is delighted to announce it has received a coveted ASTech Award for its Outstanding Commercial Achievements in Science & Technology. The acknowledgement is another in a series of awards and accolades that have characterised Extreme’s rapid growth since its launch in 2001.
“We are thrilled to be recognized in our own backyard,” says Extreme C.E.O. and co-founder, Derek Logan. “It usually takes a long time to gain acclaim within your own community. Given that we’ve been in business for six years, we’re surprised at being honoured so soon. Being awarded an ASTech highlights the outstanding quality of our people: researchers; engineers; technologists; and, administrators. It means our clients can take comfort in knowing Extreme’s products are based on sound fundamental science, an important consideration in an industry that relies so heavily on technological innovation.”
Extreme has received considerable recognition for its ability to successfully seek answers to fundamental problems and find solutions that are at once creative and practical. Among its many accolades are the prestigious R&D 100 status awarded in 2003 by R&D Magazine®, an honour considered the technological equivalent of the Oscars®.
“The ASTech award only confirms Extreme’s commitment to excellence in the areas of downhole drilling,” says Logan. “Our engineering and manufacturing business, coupled with a successful operational division, has helped us understand how to build better tools that achieve the unmatched level of reliability and functionality that have become our hallmark across the industry.”

"As if drilling a well isn’t risky enough, operators have to worry about actually getting to target in the first place. Deflection can be caused by any number of factors, but the combined effects can result in the drillbit wandering hundreds of metres off course....."
