Unbiased audits and opinions on both in-house and third-party consultant’s estimates of reserves and economics.
As companies become more sophisticated and integrate more software-based petroleum evaluation programs into their daily decision-making, Wright & Company, Inc. has increasingly been retained to audit and offer an unbiased opinion as to the reasonableness of a company’s in-house projections of reserves and economics.
Our technical staff excels at converting databases and working with many different programs and computer systems to help streamline the data transfer and provide the peace of mind sought especially by funding companies. We will review both in-house and third-party estimates of reserves and economics, and offer opinions to be used as a basis for various transactions.

The most often requested areas of review are:
Volumetric Calculations and Performance Analyses to include Decline Analysis, Ratio Trends, and many others.
In the early life of an oil or gas reservoir when there is little or no production data, the estimates of reserves are generally obtained by volumetric calculations, which require a knowledge of the size of and the properties included in the reservoir. The properties of the reservoir are predominantly measured by various logs run in the wellbores.
We offer:
If the reservoir has been producing, performance analyses may be applied. Whenever possible, or when required, Wright and Company, Inc. will utilize one or more estimation methods to obtain a consistent result. In addition, comparisons with offset data are used to verify the results and determine if they are analogous with other fields in the area. Reserves estimation methods include:
Expected future production and sales of oil, gas, and any associated byproducts; Estimates of either monthly or yearly net revenues expected to be received from those sales.
Wright & Company, Inc.’s formal reports contain a projection of the expected future production and sales of oil, gas and any associated byproducts and estimates of either monthly or yearly net revenues expected to be received from those sales. These forecasts may include income adjustments from: ad valorem and severance taxes, lease operating expenses, capital costs required for the drilling of new wells, workovers, and the installation of surface facilities. Special considerations may also be included for various escalations, interest reversions, partnership splits and payout calculations.
The two main programs we utilize for economic forecasting are OGRE (Oil and Gas Reserves Evaluation System), developed by DPC&A, Dallas, TX and ARIES- the integrated Production, Reserves, and Economic Evaluation System from Landmark. We can run these programs based upon your existing database or we can create a database from your raw data.

We can run these programs based upon your existing database or we can create a database from your raw data.
Most of the services we offer require extensive geographic and economic data for the fields, reservoirs, or specific wells being targeted. The easiest way to work with this data is in a database and if we are using either of our economic programs (OGRE or ARIES) then a database is a requirement.
If you do not have an existing database, or just want to save time, we can build your database for you from your collected raw data. If you have an existing database in dBase, Paradox or Access, we can easily work with it and can take over management if you desire. All database transfers and updates are done via CD or email.
