Supporting an essential industry
Natural resources form the foundation of Alaska’s economy. Oil and gas development alone accounts for more than 90 percent of the state’s income and a third of all Alaskan jobs.
CIRI’s investments in best-in-class oilfield services, maritime support and construction companies demonstrate our long-standing commitment to responsible resource development. As these industries thrive, so do our state, our company and our people.
