Production forecasting system (integrated asset model)

Page last modified

August 28 2024

FUTURES® is the world's first true general-purpose oil/gas production forecasting system. It is the first system that, in a few minutes, can run full oil/gas integrated asset model calculations for large systems with the daily time-steps needed for short-term forecasting.

FUTURES® is a single system that replaces confusing mixes of over-lapping software - the DCA application, IAM software, business planning spreadsheet, STPF system etc.

Pros & Limitations

Better, more auditable forecasts

Easy to use

Reduces duplication

Saves precious time

Value for money

Not a replacement for simulation (but rather the most effective post-simulation system)
