The RigRun® Story

We have 25 years of experience working in the offshore wellness space.

During this time, we have noticed that many programmes on offer focus heavily on HR tick boxes and don’t captivate end-users’ enthusiasm.

Direct in-person experiences have also given way to impersonal and anonymous digital experiences, none of which are fulfilling our mental or social needs.

The offshore environment is also unique.
We know this because we worked there too!

We understand some of the highs and lows that come with offshore life – that fog horn going off on the day you’re due to go home or the great excitement when bananas appear in the mess hall!

Most wellness programmes are designed for office settings and exclude contractors or temp workers. In an offshore environment, this creates them and us feel, which is not suitable for team camaraderie.

One of the most significant issues of workplace fitness events is that they are structured in a way that puts those already physically active at a competitive advantage.

In turn, this approach doesn’t motivate sedentary types off the sofa. We also find that ‘winning’ a digital badge, isn’t enough to incentivise people…

What is Rigrun?

During RigRun, production, drilling and refinery crews from across the international offshore industry battle it out to find out which team is the fittest of them all.

Bringing crews together from all over the offshore industry to engage in friendly competition with their industry peers, the programme has been designed to maintain and improve the physical, mental and social health of your team.

The annual programme comprises a 6-week RigRun International Cup Challenge, a 4-week Qualifiers Event, and the RigRun Recovery Zone, a 3-month timetable of interactive webinars catering specifically to the remote work site community.

What Makes Rigrun stand out from the corporate wellness crowd?

We have created a wellness platform specifically for offshore workers, including core crew, staff, contractors or day visitors.

RigRun harnesses the power of sport to inspire and unite people. It’s a curated experience for all and helps to make exercising more enjoyable.

Appealing to all ages and fitness abilities, we get people out of their cabins, boost camaraderie and give personnel an experience they won’t forget.

Through our unique fair-play algorithm, teams of all sizes compete on a level playing field.

Players of all fitness abilities contribute equally to their teams’ performance, gaining social recognition among their peers.

Generate international recognition for your team, boost pride in corporate identity and make your offshore workplace a destination of choice!
