In order to increase the value of the Significant Oil and Gas Fields of the United States Database for our customers, Nehring Associates has created working relationships with four other vendors - digital::petrodata, IHS Energy, Rose & Associates, and SPOTFIRE - to develop additional tools for analysis.

digital::petrodata

Digital::petrodata will be providing digital field and reservoir outlines for the United States beginning in Autumn 2007. These outlines are based on the field and reservoir definitions developed by Nehring Associates for the Significant Oil and Gas Fields of the United States Database. These outlines are being developed region-by-region, beginning with the Gulf of Mexico region. They are being constructed according to a rigorous process, designed to produce realistic outlines that reasonably approximate both field and reservoir area and shape. These outlines will provide full GIS functionality with the database. The outlines will be provided in standard ESRI formats.

For further information about these outlines, including examples, and the full range of digital::petrodata's products and services, contact them at www.digitalpetrodata.com.

IHS Energy

Nehring Associates has developed a Field Cross-Reference Table that ties together the three national field code systems - those of Nehring Associates (NRG), IHS Energy, and the Energy Information Administration (EIA). This table enables our customers to relate our field and reservoir data to IHS Energy's well data. The Field Cross-Reference Table is designed to facilitate spatial analysis using the algorithms that have been developed in recent years to create field and reservoir outlines from well data. It also facilitates the creation of per-well recovery distributions within fields (for comparisons of similar reservoirs and fields and the evaluation of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs), and the description of development histories within fields and reservoirs (which can be correlated with field and reservoir growth, production histories, and discovery histories).

Rose & Associates

Nehring Associates has a formal cooperative arrangement with Rose & Associates, the leading provider of integrated exploration and production risk management tools. Our KnowNow retrieval system can be used to provide inputs for Rose & Associates' prospect risk analysis program, the Multi-Mode Risk and Reserve Analysis Program. Nehring Associates' play definitions and building blocks for analysis provide useful inputs for Rose & Associates' Play Risk Analysis Program. Nehring Associates and Rose & Associates also conduct ongoing discussions on the conceptual foundations and data needs of upstream risk analysis.

SPOTFIRE

SPOTFIRE provides graphical and spatial analysis software. Because of SPOTFIRE's ease of use and range of capabilities, Nehring Associates formally supports its use with the Significant Oil and Gas Fields of the United States Database. We provide our licensees detailed instructions on creating tables for SPOTFIRE from the EXCEL master tables in the database, on developing relevant graphs of the data, and on constructing quick maps.
