I think a lot about the next generation these days. At the beginning of my career, knowledge was stored in memory and on paper. When the time comes to pass your oil & gas business to the next generation, you’re not just handing over assets, you’re also handing over decades of hard-earned knowledge.
What is better now? Knowledge can also live in a system. Without that knowledge, your heirs inherit a puzzle with missing pieces.
Imagine instead that your wells could talk and tell the next generation exactly how they perform, what they cost, what they produce, and where to focus for growth.
That’s what an advanced digital system does. It pulls together production, financial, and reserves data into a single source of truth. Analytics turn raw numbers into clear guidance, so your successors can understand the business on day one without guessing, scrambling, or dependency on tribal knowledge.
Legacy should be more than a hand-off. It should be a launchpad for the next generation to build on what you created. With a system of data gathering and analytics, your wells don’t just produce oil and gas, they produce insight.
Because the best gift you can give your successors is the ability to run the business with confidence.
