IHS Petrodata™ World Rig Forecast: Short-Term Trends

This regional energy exploration and production company reduced the time required to generate monthly reports from 1 day to 20 minutes and reduced the workload from 2 full-time positions to one. Experienced staff now spends time making decisions instead of making reports and pumpers' accuracy has improved, too.

For 30+ years, this E&P company has thrived by adopting transformative technologies. Recently it began using a new system to increase profits by reducing geosteering operations from hours to minutes with real-time data, improving communication efficiency between engineers and geophysicists, and by integrating seismic information with well data.

This Danish energy firm makes expert use of an IHS tool to meet tight deadlines for project bids -- eliminating the need for hundreds of hours of manual cost-estimation and saving 75% of the time required to ramp up an outside contractor -- while giving decision makers confidence in the estimates’ proven accuracy.

With operations in Texas and California, this independent oil and gas company implemented a single, integrated system that enabled access to 30+ standard reports with the latest well and production info via the Web, avoiding manual processes and increasing data currency. Easily created/maintained "hands-free" data feeds saved months of development time.
