This volume is added to the volumes in the database when reporting cumulative production (e.g. 7 Day Prod /w Cums report) Cum Prod Net not used Cum Overage The running overage relative to the Allowable. Water The Project Type input field could be defined something like a secondary recovery program. Permission to add, edit or delete data is set in the Admin / User Role Management permissions section (Site Maintenance). Transporter/Destination Information is the same as for the other products.  There are no processor, source or buyer information on this page. The Monthly Production Defaults allow you to Create a monthly water production value based on one of three options. Code A is a fixed amount of production entered as the Default Value.  Code B is a calculated value based on the Default Value times the number of days a well is on.  Code C is a calculated value based on the Water/Oil ratio is the Water per BBL of Oil value entered in the Default Value position. The Disposal code is the default method of disposal of the water: The default method is unlined pit if no other disposition is noted.  During monthly production entry, this will be the default method but you can override the default as needed. Location Permission to add, edit or delete data is set in the Admin / User Role Management permissions section. The Location tab allows defining the physical location of a site within a state. The panel is divided into three main sections to describe the surface and bottom hole locations for the site. First is a Panel for entering metes and bounds descriptions. This panel however is seldom used. In the second panel you can enter quarter quarter sections, sections, township and range data. For Texas data, you can enter survey and blocks information. Lastly you may also choose to enter longitude and latitude coordinates. A minus sign before the longitude value is required to properly designate the longitude. Either NAD 1927 or NAD 1983 values may be used. The most commonly used panel is the surface box with quarter quarter section, section, township and range. To save the data, simply click in the next box or move to the next page. The data will automatically be saved. Company The Site Maintenance Company tab allows the entry of company specific information such as Working Interest, Net Revenue Interest (NRI), Office, District, Engineer, etc. for a site. Clicking on the Company tab displays the panel below. Permission to add, edit or delete data in this panel is set in the Admin / User Role Management permissions section. Working Interest (WI) and Net Revenue Interest (NRI) are date sensitive entries and are entered in decimal form, i.e. .75, .50.  When entering WI or NRI data in a new well, the program will assume those values apply to all dates, daily and/or monthly until a new date is entered.  When you change the WI or NRI data, AnalystX2 can "recalculate" the monthly/daily with the new values for past periods.  To do this, click on the small clock icon and input a start and stop date for the recalculation. Except for Working Interest (WI) and Net Revenue Interest (NRI), all other data items in the panel are for informational purposes only and are available for other reports as needed. Although there are many data items in the primary input pages that can be used to control or sort against, there are always "other" identifiers that don't fit the "standard" data items. Xref section of the Site file allows the input of such items. X ref are alphanumeric items used as references for moving data between AnalystX2 and a Third-Party software; examples would be Bolo and Aries.  The first 6 items of the list have names, ie accounting, economics etc. These are standard items that most companies use for data exchanges.  For example, the Accounting item would denote the internal ID of this site in a company accounting system. The same principal applies to the terms Economics, Marketing, Other Operator ID, and the two miscellaneous terms. If required, each of the items in this section can be renamed by clicking on the icon to the right of the input box. The other 9 identifiers have number labels.  These generally are used for other "odd" identifiers that may be used as reporting or control items. The small wheel icon next to the data input box allows you to change the name of the data item. Any item name change will change that name for ALL sites in the data base.  You can't use User Xref 1 for a work over date in one well site and as something else in another site.   If used, the Accounting data position MUST refer to the same thing in all sites. Regulatory The Regulatory tab is a depository for critical information used for State and Federal reporting. This panel contains five sections: general, state, federal leases, well count and Federal. The order of data input is controlled only by what data is required for the site. State and Federal site Identification numbers, Permit numbers, Federal Lease/ Agreement numbers are inserted here. These critical numbers are required for creating State and Federal reports. In the General Section, a 14 digit API number, is required for State reporting. The Lease Name or number is a requirement for certain but not all state agencies. In the state reporting section, if the site is not reported to any state agency, these boxes may be left blank. The Well Count section is used only for Montana reports.  However, many users, use this panel to account for the number of wells included in a site allocation. In the Federal section, a Federal Well Code is currently used only for Offshore reports. The Interval Code is a three-character code related to the number of open intervals in a well.  An example of the interval code is S01. The Participating Area is operator information only. The NGPA class is no longer used but there can still be some old gas contracts related to the old NGPA rules. Is the site on an Indian Lease? If any well on a report is part of an Indian Lease, the whole report is marked as Indian even though not all wells in the report are on Indian lands. If a well is drilled on a Federal lease, the Federal Agreement number or Federal Lease number is required. Because Federal lease numbers can change over time, all Federal Agreement or Federal Lease numbers related to a site or used on the Federal OGOR report, must be recorded in the Federal Agreement number box.   To add a new federal lease, click add. Type in a new lease name or use the spy glass icon to find the name of an existing Federal lease. Add a start date, click OK. The new lease agreement appears in the box. If a site is to be reported under a new lease, you must end date the active lease before adding the new lease. Highlight the current lease. Click Edit. Add a stop date, Click OK. Click Add to enter a new lease and use a start date, the day after the end date.Click OK By maintaining leases using effective date, the regulatory reporting process will automatically take care of the stock transfers when the report is filed. After clicking OK the site is using the second Federal Lease Number and complies with Federal regulations for the site. Click Save Changes to record the new data in the regulatory tab. Gas Analysis The Gas Analysis tab allows entering gas composition data, ie. the amount of methane, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, etc as determined by a sample analysis. Permission to add, edit or delete data is set in Admin / User Role Management. Gas analysis data may be entered into a site file in two ways: via direct entry or by an external file upload.  To see or enter data, first select the desired site and then click on the Gas Analysis tab.   Click Add New Sample.  The following display will appear. The 5 blue highlighted boxes are required fields. Gas analysis information can vary widely based on the needs of the company. Some operators require everything while others need only data through C5 and everything else is listed as C6.  In most cases, the Mole % value is the only value that is required.  BTU and Specific Gravity (SG) values may not be needed.  GPM (gallons per million cubic feet) can be calculated based on industry standards or it could be manually entered. AnalystX2 will calculate GPM base on industry standards. Click the small icon on the right of the GMP heading. Mole % values are decimal and do not always add up to 100%.  The little icon next to the heading "Mole %" will adjust the total by adding or subtracting from the Methane value (C1) in order to make the total add up to 100%.   The "Date Range" items allow you to specify the date range for applying the gas analysis. The other buttons at the top of the screen allow deleting an existing analysis, copying an analysis to another site, exporting the data in an XLS file format, or checking the dates for which the samples were entered. Equipment This tab allows entering three types of data; entering whether or not any Pollution Control Equipment (combustor or vapor recovery) exist for a site, indicating whether or not a weekly inspection is reported and what equipment will be assigned to the site. Permission to enter data into this tab is set in Admin/User Role Management under the Daily Section. Air Pollution Control Equipment Section: Radial check buttons specify whether a combustor or vapor recovery units exist on site. Selecting one of these types causes PumperX2 to include the APCE reporting group on the production tab, assuming the APCE group is included in the assigned layout for PumperX2. The entry group contains equipment status (on/off) and whether an inspection is recorded. Optionally a weekly inspection requirement can be specified. Other Equipment Section: To add an item of equipment to a site, first a defined class of equipment must exist in Admin / Equipment Definitions. Equipment entered in the Other Equipment section serves two distinct roles within AnalystX2. The first role allows capture of operational data associated with the equipment for use in internal and external reports. The second role captures fuel usage data that may be applied directly to the well the equipment is attached to or used in an allocation to provide for adding back production volumes that do not exist at the source. Equipment may be defined and associated to a specific site in this tab. Equipment items can be defined for any class of site. To allow for segregating equipment within PumperX2 there is a specific class (Equipment) that can contain only equipment items. This allows you to create 'stops' for the pumper that are distinct from other sites that appear in the selection tree for a route. Click 'Add'. When New Equipment Period window opens, enter a name for the equipment item and specify it's class and start date, (format MM/DD/YYYY) click 'Save'. The Equipment Setup window will open. You may input the equipment information. Five sections of the panel define Name, Fuel Usage, Notes, Properties and Capture. Name: The display name of the equipment, used where ever the equipment is referenced. Fuel Usage:  Reports fuel usage : yes, click the check box and select the method of data capture parameters; no, continue without checking box. The Direct Entry Of Fuel Usage means that you will manually enter some value every day or month.   Acquire From Defined Meter means that you have defined a separate gas meter to record the fuel usage for this piece of equipment. The Value item enters a value to be used for any of the Fixed items listed above. Acquire From Defined Meter means the meter used to measure the fuel used as setup under the Gas product. The Active From items allow you to specify the production dates for which this equipment setup is functional. The remaining items on this screen are the Equipment Property items and the equipment Data Capture Items setup with the Equipment Definitions. Since you may setup several data capture items for an equipment class but may need only certain ones for a single piece of equipment you will need to place a check mark next to the data items you want to capture for this one piece of equipment. Production The Production tab displays two simple charts showing monthly and daily data. The monthly chart shows the complete monthly production history while the daily charts shows only the last 30 days of production. To the right of each chart are the production values. These screens however, are for review purposes only. For a more detailed examination of production history, use PDV in the AnalystX2 . Data for Monthly and Daily charts may be erased from display by using the Delete buttons. The data will not be removed from the database when using these delete buttons. Forecast Manually input data to calculate a forecast of production. To access the Forecast tab, in AnalystX2 click Site, then Site Maintenance. Highlight the desired site. Then Click the Forecast tab. In this panel, you can import or manually enter monthly forecast values and quickly view a graph of the monthly data. There are three main parts to the panel: the chart on the lower right, the monthly input data on the left and Options to choose whether the chart is to be Cartesian or logarithmic. On the top row, you can select a Forecast type. These forecast types are previously saved charts. To create a new Forecast type, click types. When the window opens, click New type in the lower left corner. The Forecast Type Definition panel appears. Input a name. The description is optional. In the Daily Forecast Derivation Method, select one of the two options: divide the monthly value by the number of days in the month or use a fixed divisor. The fixed divisor by default is 30 days per month, however any required number may be used. Next select whether or not you want the forecast to appear in the PumperX2 display by checking the box. Types may be deleted using the Delete button in the lower left corner. When done, Click Save Changes. To close the panel, click the X in the upper right. The panel on the left is ready for manually entering data. You can enter as many months as needed.   When done Click Save Changes to produce a Forecast graph. In the display, Green represents oil, red equals gas, and blue represents water. To import forecast data. Click the Import Button and the following screen appears. At the top of this display are the import control items.  Xref Type means "What item in the site record is used as the import control?"  Click the drop-down arrow to view the possible control items.   For example, you could use the Accounting id number or the economics id number as possible control items. Next choose the forecast type by using the Forecast type dropdown menu.  If needed, you can also create a new type by using the Types button. Import file designates the location and name of the import file.  Import Files can be either XLS, CSV, or TAB Delimited. The sample files indicate that we want to import forecast data for two sites (Sample1 and Sample2) and both for the period 1/2016-3/2016. Each row of the file must have a well identifier and period defined however, you can include as many sites and periods as required. The following is a workflow example of how to import a forecast file. Use the Xref dropdown menu to Specify the well identifier type. Click the dropdown menu to Specify the forecast type. If your file contains a header row, Check the 'Ignore first row' box. In the Import file box use the icon on the right to navigate to the import file. Select the file. Click 'Scan File' to examine the file. When the scan completes, review the data for any error messages. If no errors are found, click 'Start Import' to initiate the import. Close the Import Forecast tab. The imported data may be displayed. If not choose, the correct Forecast Type Diary The Diary section is a text based panel for users to add occasional or daily comments and notes regarding the highlighted site. Input is done by adding text in the text bar at the bottom of the display.  Once a note is entered, click on Submit and the note is added in the space above. Permission to add, delete entries can be found in Admin / User Role Management Permission section. Copyright © 2019 by PRAMS Plus LLC. All Rights Reserved.
