  • Well spacing and placement optimization
  • Recovery factor estimation
  • Development scenario analysis

Subsurface Evaluation

  • Regional geologic framework development
  • Prospect generation and risk assessment
  • Formation evaluation and petrophysics
  • Analog studies and benchmarking
  • Data room evaluation and due diligence

Reserves & Economics

  • SEC reserves estimation and classification
  • Probabilistic resource assessment
  • Decline curve analysis
  • Type curve development
  • Economic modeling and sensitivity analysis

Integrated Workflows

  • Geoscience to engineering integration
  • Full-field development planning
  • Infill drilling optimization
  • Secondary and tertiary recovery evaluation
  • Asset acquisition and divestiture support
