STUDY AREAS

Offshore Study

With 30+ years of upstream benchmarking experience and the world’s largest database of upstream performance data and metrics, Solomon knows what “good” looks like for any given type of operation. The Offshore Study assesses your performance against peers and identifies cost and production improvement opportunities. The study focuses on critical KPIs, including operating cost, cost drivers, production efficiency, and uptime reliability. Looking more closely at operational excellence creates opportunities for the long run. Solomon’s Offshore Study can illuminate these opportunities. We've benchmarked >5,000 offshore and onshore O&G fields in >40 countries.

Worldwide Onshore Study

Improve your performance using the world’s largest database of upstream performance data, metrics, and our deep insight. The Onshore Study utilizes Solomon’s proprietary methodology to compare the operational performance of onshore operators worldwide using a range of KPIs.

Permian Basin Shale Study

Field-level production operations study identifies cost optimization, production efficiency, and GHG reduction opportunities. The Permian Basin Study goes beyond public data traditionally used to benchmark drilling and completions performance to highlight operational efficiency, cost reduction opportunities, and safety and environmental performance.

Bakken Basin Shale Study

Identify production efficiency, cost reduction & well-work performance opportunities in your Williston Basin Bakken production operations.

Eagle Ford Shale Study

Field-level production operations study identifies cost optimization, production efficiency, and GHG reduction opportunities. The Eagle Ford Shale Study goes beyond public data traditionally used to benchmark drilling and completions performance to highlight operational efficiency, cost reduction opportunities, and safety and environmental performance.

Thermal Oilsands Study

Capture large, operational-cost savings and maximize operational uptime in your thermal oil sands project. Solomon’s Thermal Oil Sands Operations Performance Analysis (Thermal Oil Sands Study) can help you uncover key areas of underperformance in your operations.

Data Quality, Benchmarking Methodology
