Products - GeoX/Personal

GeoX/Personal with the gProspectR and gFullCycle tools is a powerful, yet easy to use workbench package in the well established GeoX family of exploration decision support tools. gProspectR supports volumetric evaluation of prospectivity and risks. gFullCycle provides a complete, but simple approach to modelling the exploration, development and production activities that drive life cycle exploration project costs and revenues. Both tools have been designed to promote quality assured exploration decisioning. They use the most recent advances in prospect modelling techniques, stochastic life cycle modelling techniques and computer-based support. Unique argumentation functions provide a basis for effective communication and systematic learning in multidiscipline evaluations of exploration opportunities.

4-phase volumetrics with composite risking

In-place and recoverable oil, associated gas, non-associated gas and condensate resources are assessed with gProspectR using stochastic input parameter estimates. Explicit distinction between marginal, play-level risks and conditional, prospect specific risks provides calibrated analysis of prospects in frontier and mature plays. Additional features such as on-the-fly unit conversion and direct entry of intermediate values provide a flexible and scaleable HC accumulation modelling framework.

Finding commercial petroleum

Full cycle evaluation of prospects focuses early attention on commercial exploration opportunities. By transforming risk and resource estimates from gProspectR into estimates of economic returns, gFullCycle promotes not only technical success, but also finding commercially exploitable quantities of petroleum.

An international exploration portfolio populated by best opportunities

Consistent review of alternative investment opportunities enable you to assure that your international exploration portfolio is populated by the best investment opportunities. Accurate and rapid assessment of the implications of alternative fiscal arrangements strengthens your negotiation posture. gFullCycle supports modelling both concession and contract (PSC) regimes.

Explicit evaluation of all risks and uncertainties

All ED&P technology and cost input estimates, and not only geological inputs, are stochastic distributions. The resulting stochastic analysis supports the evaluation of the role and relative importance of key uncertainties and risks.

Rapid, consistent analysis using shared tables on technology, costs, market and fiscal regimes

Shared ED&P technology and cost tables, petroleum market scenarios and fiscal regimes facilitate rapid and consistent evaluation of exploration opportunities. A simple, but powerful analysis Import functionality enables you to make effective use of data and expertise offerings.

Common relational geodatabase

Full cycle analyses are attached to the corresponding prospect analysis and stored in a common GeoX database. The database uses industry standard relational database systems such as Oracle and Sybase. GeoX/Personal is the stand-alone GeoX solution with a personal relational database.

Day-one operation

GeoX /personal is simple to use with effective use from the first day. Flexible interaction provides a basis for rapid analysis of simple cases and direct extension to the analysis of more complex situations. A modern window-based graphical user interface assures that 80 % of all interactions are point-and-select operations.

Scalable solution that can grow with your needs

GeoX is a scaleable solution that can grow in terms of your needs and requirements. The GeoX/Personal solution is a stand-alone version with single-user database intended for small companies and for use with laptop computers. The GeoX/Workgroup solution supports multiple users in a client/server configuration and active maintenance of a common corporate exploration data base across multiple sites and machines. Scope of functionality can be extended to the full range of tools and functions.

Comprehensive training and technical support

GeoKnowledge’s experienced prospectivity assessment and decision support professionals offer hot-line assistance, training seminars and active implementation assistance. The support is offered world-wide through international partners.
