History & Background

Numerical Rocks was established in December 2004 as an innovation spin-off via Statoil ASA. Initially comprising of two ex-Statoil employees, the company now employs 28 full time staff: 27 in Trondheim, Norway and 1 in the UK.

Numerical Rocks is a ‘daughter-company’ to Statoil who continue to own the majority of shares with the founders and employees owning the rest.

The technology was originally started in 1997 at Statoil’s R&D centre at Rotvoll, Trondheim and following the spin-off, Numerical Rocks have continued the product R&D work and are working towards a launch of the first commercial version of the e-Core software package, V 2.0.

Today e-Core software is currently being used and tested at client sites in the US, Norway, the Netherlands, Germany and the Middle East.
