Production Simulator

OPTIMIZE PRODUCTION STRATEGIES. MAXIMIZE VALUE

 

KCA’s Production Simulator is a powerful, interactive tool that helps you evaluate oil and gas production scenarios  in real time—accounting for operational constraints and economic impact. With flexible controls, users can simulate HN and Buckskin production under different start dates, forecast profiles, API blend requirements, and total liquids limits.

Key Capabilities:

  • Adjust start dates and forecast ranges for HN and BKS production

  • Configure API blend targets and total liquids limits

  • Instantly refresh results and capture Net Present Value (NPV) comparisons across cases

Insightful Outputs Include:

  • Side-by-side view of original vs. constrained oil and gas profiles

  • Impact of API and liquids limits on production and NPV

  • Visual waterfall breakdown of NPV impacts by constraint

  • Dynamic schematic of production by source, showing constraint effects

  • Fully formatted, printable reports summarizing inputs and results

Built with flexibility in mind, the app also includes placeholders for expanding to four additional production streams as your portfolio evolves.
