About us

We wanted to change the world… well maybe not the world, but certainly the intervention market

The Autentik Way

We made it our mission to define the future of interventions

We understood that the industry was at a transition point; the digitalisation of wireline tools was becoming a key requirement. Tools needed to be steered and communicated with while downhole.

It was time to throw out the old toolbox and replace with a well-robot, a tool to replace them  all. We made it our mission to define the future of interventions. ​We are Autentik – the innovators of Wellgrab(TM)

From 2016 the Wellgrab team worked hard to identify the limitations of current tools. We reviewed missing features and looked at opportunities for monitoring the in-hole progress when using digital fishing tools.

After 2 years of development, the technology became commercial in December 2018, with our first two projects taking place in June 2019.

Following successful operations, we signed a global agreement with Welltec for the Wellgrab(TM) technology​.

In August 2019 we were delighted to secure more investors, and this was strengthened further in 2020, when we secured Research Council of Norway funding.​

We have led, and continue to lead, the digital transition of intervention tools. We have come a long way and have much more to come as we continue on our mission.​

We are driving the future of downhole intervention tools. We are Autentik.​

We are growing
