SHARPENING FORTUNE 500

INVESTOR MESSAGING

APACHE CORPORATION

Stellar print and online IR
CHALLENGE

In 2007, oil and gas prices were skyrocketing and so was activity. But Apache didn’t follow the crowd down the same old path; it liked to blaze new trails, buying where others bypassed. And its strategy paid off. How could we tell the story beyond the numbers?

ACTION

Origin created a clear message for investors and analysts, getting the word out through both print and online media. Inspired by the superior ability of the Apache tribe to navigate using the night skies, the creative spoke to the relentlessness of Apache employees. It also spoke to the company’s ability to go where other oil and gas companies didn’t–and make money. The campaign’s progressive design, striking photography and compelling story got Apache’s IR efforts noticed in an industry known for playing it safe with the same old same old.

  • Served as lead investor relations agency for $29 billion oil and gas exploration company
  • Differentiated Apache from similar players and told its story without being cliché
  • Brought the company’s investor relations into the age of investor interactivity
