2. What Is Economics? Translates technical and business data into MONEY
Enables meaningful comparisons among assets & opportunities
Methodology combines
Resource volumes
Production forecasts
Prices, opex, and capex
Ownership and taxes
Computes values for
Economic reserves
Revenue and profit
Net present value, ROI
3. Why Run Economics? E&P is a business
E&P companies compete with everyone for capital
E&P companies compete with each other for opportunities
Economics defines “Reserves”
Answers “decision” questions
How much is it worth?
Is it profitable/more profitable?
What if prices/costs change?
How much can I spend?
Does it improve my ROI?
4. What Is Incremental Economics? A rigorous approach for comparing one project with another by subtracting their economic results
How much better is doing one thing than doing another?
Not needed for a stand alone project – comparing to zero
A method to help you:
Decide among mutually exclusive projects – where you can only do one of the set
Justify incremental investments – is more better?
Evaluate income acceleration projects – where you get the same reserves or revenue, but faster
Calculate probable “wedge” reserves – where the answer only exists as the difference between two forecasts
5. Typical Incremental Questions
6. Incremental Economics – Fundamentals Always based on summary level subtraction, which means the results are based on time frames
except MPROD for incremental production
You could model each situation
in separate properties, if it fits, if you want to manage them
as different cases in the same property
Your results can be
temporary, as an economic summary report, for decisions
semi-permanent, in a summary blob, for adding in elsewhere
permanent, in a database entity
Several methods: Weight, “Use Picklist”, SuperSum and EcoSum, Summary Group, Econ Group
7. Incremental Economics – Methods Simple Weight and Sum
Batch macro needs too much input for this
SuperSum and EcoSum store and use blobs
“Use Picklist” controls weights and scenarios
Summary Group controls weights and scenarios and stores results in Oneline and Detail tables
Econ Group enables ordered and/or repeated members (and keeps data with the Group)
8. Incremental Economics – Weight and Sum Must be separate properties under a sigma
Specify weights in Misc data line or on Picklist
Scenario is based on toolbar
Auto Summary produces the reports
Does not store results
9. Incremental Economics – SuperSum Separate properties under a sigma
Specify weights in Misc data or on Picklist
Convert sigma to SuperSum project
Auto Summary uses toolbar scenario to produce reports
Stores summary result as binary large object, if checked
Can reuse results in summaries by pushing to an EcoSum
10. Incremental Economics – “Use Picklist” Same or separate properties under a sigma
Specify “Use Scenario”; applies to entire Picklist
Weights and scenarios on Picklist rows
Auto Summary produces reports
Does not store results
11. Incremental Economics – Summary Group Members must be separate properties
Specify weights and scenarios (Use Picklist if mixed)
Stores titles and top level investments
Specifics are store with the Project
Run Property (the group) produces reports
Stores results in Oneline and Detail tables
12. Incremental Economics – Econ Group Members can be same or separate properties; ordered
Specify weights and scenarios on Picklist rows: hierarchy
Stores titles and top level investments
Specifics are stored in the Econ Group
Run Property (the group) produces reports
Stores results in Oneline and Detail tables
