But at ABL, the picture looks different. From country managers who are former naval officers and seasoned mariners, to senior surveyors, pipeline engineers, wellsite geologists and mechanical specialists, women at ABL aren\u2019t the exception. They are leaders in their fields.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take <strong>Lene Thorstensen<\/strong>, for example. She now manages a highly experienced team of operations and wellsite geologists, helping deliver safe and sustainable energy operations. Lene&#8217;s journey began in a very different place, signing up for a one-year stint in the Navy that turned into seven. That experience ultimately led her to study geology and build a career she\u2019s passionate about today.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"376\" height=\"431\" src=\"https:\/\/abl-group.com\/abl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Raven-Liu.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-124317\" style=\"width:219px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abl-group.com\/abl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Raven-Liu.jpeg 376w, https:\/\/abl-group.com\/abl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Raven-Liu-262x300.jpeg 262w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Raven Liu<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Our recent new joiner <strong>Raven Liu <\/strong>is another example.
