Early planning is a key ingredient of cost-effective decommissioning. To help operators map out their decom journey, we recently updated our "glidepath", which shows when certain milestones should be reached. The glidepath was discussed at #DecomWeek24 during a session on late-life operations, chaired by Rama Sharma, of Xodus, and featuring NSTA Decommissioning Manager Alasdair Thomas (second from left) as well as representatives from Canadian Natural Resources Limited (CNRL) and EnQuest. The panellists also spoke about the importance of involving the supply chain early in the planning process. To encourage engagement, 16 operators have shared their decom schedules on our Decommissioning Data Visibility Dashboard. Companies also advertise upcoming tendering opportunities for a range of projects, including decommissioning, on Energy Pathfinder.

I assure you both EQT and ETRN espouse transparency as a culture mantra. What other bids for ETRN were considered? What prices received? What was the bid process? How does a company with 20% of their production shut in, historically low commodity pricing ( maybe $1/mcf) at the Marcellus hub and riddled with debt, buy a used car? Let alone taking on another $6.5 billion in debt? All while diluting EQT shares. Rich white men fail at running a company like EQT so they muddy the water with acquisitions. Toby’s previous two haven’t worked out (see note on debt and shut in production). This one won’t either. Antitrust, shut this down.

Visualizing real estate assets and interests owned by your business is more than just adding parcel boundaries to a map, especially if there isn’t a single source of truth defining the portfolio of properties. Mergers and acquisitions (common in the oil and gas industry) may mean needing to validate parcels owned and divested to ensure that you're paying taxes where necessary and not where it isn’t. In this industry use case, learn how our spatial data experts identify common pain points and how we deliver the most efficient and reliable data solutions for this industry: https://hubs.ly/Q02JzQn90 #SpatialData #ParcelBoundaries #OilandGas #PropertyData #RealEstateData #ESRI

Day 2 Highlights from Super DUG: Stay Dry People! Despite some disruptive weather across Texas, Day 2 of the Super DUG conference was full of insights and forward-looking discussions. A central theme was the evolving regulatory landscape for mergers and acquisitions. With the Exxon Pioneer deal wrapping up swiftly, optimism is growing that other pending deals will successfully navigate the regulatory maze. The industry consensus suggests an achievable path ahead for M&A, even under meticulous FTC scrutiny. Emissions management remains a hot topic, now more urgent with new methane regulations. The industry stands before a massive opportunity to accelerate decarbonization by refining existing practices, especially in methane emission monitoring—a critical factor in environmental commitments. On the financing front, the dynamics are shifting intriguingly. While majors and public companies are adhering strictly to free cash flow, private equity is dialing back its presence. In this gap, family offices are emerging as a promising source of capital, signaling potential new growth avenues in the industry's financial landscape. To capture interest from these new players, companies must showcase a robust balance sheet, a solid operational track record, and differentiation at the drill bit through new innovations to set them apart. As we close another day full of learning and networking, the resilience and adaptability of the oil and gas community continue to inspire. Looking forward to more engaging discussions and insights as the conference progresses! #SuperDUG2024 #OilAndGas #EnergyIndustry #MergersAndAcquisitions #EmissionsManagement #Innovation #Oilfield #Oilfieldservices #Index #Investing #Futures
