3 ways to deal with low oil prices

Here we go again, oil prices have dropped significantly. Have you reacted? Here are three ideas.

  • First respond to lower prices by stopping the bleeding
    • Do you have any uneconomic wells? Are you sure?
    • Avenirre makes the calculations easy. Even those “hidden” wells inside a large unit.
    • Create a list of wells that will be shut in at a certain commodity price.
  • Second, get ready for higher prices surely to come.
    • Improve your property portfolio via acquisitions/divestitures
  • Third, make a plan to succeed.
    • Rapidly changing commodity prices keep you guessing, use scenarios to gamify.
    • Use facts: not gut feelings to drive decisions.
    • Seize the opportunity to remake your organization into a leaner company
    • Don’t ignore HBP issues. Set up an alerting system.
    • Group wells by pumper routes for additional insights.
    • Make company efficiency a main driver going forward
    • Consider using software to handle the everyday work
