Utilizing the latest technology combined with a friendly and intuitive interface, you now have a “one of a kind” database to tap into the rich datasets presented by the industry on a regular basis.

PLS now provides you with an ability to evaluate the shales by:

  • Time - How have type curves in the Barnett evolved?
  • Company - Compare Bakken type curves by indivdual companies!
  • Economics – Let’s rank the shales by IRR’s!
  • Vintage – What are the latest shale plays?

In a matter of minutes, rather than hours/days, you can produce a quick analysis such as:

Niobrara Curve

Courtesy of Approach Resources, this slide shows Horizontal Type curve for the Wolfcamp play in Crockett County, Texas in the Permian basin. In the full presentation we learn that horizontal drilling provides a 5.6X uplift versus vertical. This compares to 6.5X in the Eagle Ford and 7.3X in the Niobrara.

Courtesy of Enerplus Resources Fund, this slide shows 90% of recent wells in NE Pennsylvania are outperforming the 6 Bcfe Type Curve. In the full presentation we learn that at $4.00/MMbtu gas, the 6 Bcfe well yields an IRR of 20% and the 4Bcfe well loses money.

Courtesy of Brigham Exploration, this slide shows a ROR range of 34% to 77% for horizontal wells in the Bakken with EUR’s ranging from 500 – 700 MBOE. In the full presentation we also learn that based on a 600 MBOE curve, the breakeven oil price (or 10% ROR) is $55.

Courtesy of Carrizo Oil and Gas, this slide shows that based on 300 MBOE curve and at $85 oil, the Niobrara pays out in less than two years and yields a IRR of 76%. In the full presentation we also learn that in the Eagle Ford gas condensate window , a 400 MBOE well yields an IRR of 44% (same price deck).
