Abstract
As a top manager for Norway’s largest oil company, Bjørn Rasmussen has a chance to make decisions that can affect the lives of many people. Case in point: In 1991, Rasmussen was the regional head of exploration in Norway for Hydro. One of the geophysicists in his team, Terje Enoksen, found seismic evidence for a gas field off the coast of Norway, in a region where experts had not expected any more large finds. As Rasmussen says, the conventional wisdom at the time was that “all the big elephants are gone.”
