Fast, one-stop screening for basin potential and strategic fit.

In just an hour or two or even a few minutes if you have used one before, our Basin Monitors allow you to review the critical petroleum system concepts and selected E&P metrics of a single basin, lending confidence to your initial risk/reward assessment of farm-in or bid-round opportunities.

Consistently formatted for easy reference, Basin Monitors place the commercial history of the basin in context and can save you weeks of gathering published geological data.
