UKCS Relinquishment Report data, all in one place: 2016 Update
20.10.16
We’ve recently updated our Relinquishment Tool to include the latest Summer 2016 relinquishment releases.
The tool brings together and standardises a wide range of valuable data from all published UKCS offshore licence relinquishment reports. As well as providing details on all partial and complete relinquishments offshore UKCS, our easy-to-use excel-based interactive dashboards help companies interrogate the data, improve their understanding and support strategic business decisions.
Following our update, the report now contains:
- All ~ 1600 partial and complete licence relinquishments from Jan 2006 – June 2016
- ~ 650 reports with up to 200 possible data entries per report, including reason for relinquishment, work programme details and prospectivity evaluation
- ~ 1000 prospectivity evaluation entries with details on estimated volumes, geological chance of success, key risk, trap type and other petroleum system components where available.
There’s a range of insights the tool can help with. For example:
- In improving the geological understanding in different areas. What prospectivity did other companies see, what was targeted, how attractive was it and what were the key risks?
- In helping identify potential opportunities that may have been missed previously. Why was the acreage relinquished – was it due to a lack of funding, logistical constraints, or a lack of target maturity?
- In pulling out trends across and for individual companies. How often is acreage relinquished and where? What vintage and quality of data and evaluation are decisions based on?
