The people behind smarter wells

We’re a team of drilling and digital enthusiasts on a mission to support energy companies in maximising value across the well lifecycle.
Since the very beginning, we’ve focused on removing repetitive work, connecting fragmented well delivery workflows, and turning data into actionable drilling performance decisions.
Today, the team behind iQx™ supports some of the world’s largest operators with digital well planning and execution.

Connected. Secure. Built to Scale.

iQx™ fits your existing data ecosystem, connecting external info systems and data formats in one seamless workflow. Open API enable configurations so that you can generate custom output reports to match your needs.
Our applications combine modern architecture, advanced security controls, and SSO to give customers a secure platform.
We co-innovate continuously with our customers intuitive software.

2008

Birth of an idea in the heart of drilling operations

In 2008, our team of engineers and well-delivery specialists began a mission: to replace spreadsheets and siloed tools with a unified digital workflow for planning, cost-modelling and performance tracking. With hands-on field experience driving the vision, we launched our first prototype of the iQx™ platform — a cloud-based solution built to tackle the complexity of drilling time, cost and risk.

2010

From prototype to operational rollout

By 2010, iQx™ had entered active deployment. We engaged with pilot clients and live drilling programmes, refining our time-and-cost models and integrating real-world data. Our engineering know-how and close collaboration with drilling teams accelerated the standardisation of workflows and unlocked the first meaningful savings for operators.

2013

Global expansion

In 2013, AGR Software expanded its footprint across continents, supporting operations for our users from Europe to Asia and Australia.

2019

Full lifecycle coverage with RIG

RIG brings rig schedules into the iQx suite of applications, strengthening full-lifecycle well delivery intelligence.

2020

Multi-well campaign modelling

Our software architecture matured to handle large datasets and complex workflows. With the launch of the next-generation time and cost estimator iQx PLANS, our users were able to model large drilling campaigns in one workspace.

2025

Asia becomes a significant growth market

Asia-Pacific expansion continues as local iQx deployments strengthen confidence in iQx security and data governance, supporting the region’s accelerating digital ways of working.

our team

Where engineering expertise meets digital innovation.

At AGR Software, our team is built from the ground up by engineers, developers, and industry specialists who understand the challenges of modern well operations.

We’ve spent decades in the field — planning, executing, and analysing wells — before bringing that experience into the digital space. Today, that same hands-on insight drives every solution we design.
