What is Player?
Conventional Exploration
Player is the gold standard tool for Play Analysis in the upstream oil and gas industry today with 30+ international E&P companies now using our product. Our client base comes from the full spectrum of oil and gas companies actively exploring almost every basin globally, from small independents through to global supermajors.
The play analysis process in a conventional play setting as seen in Player forces the evaluation team to look at and understand why nearby wells have succeeded or failed in a critical way.
Player is our flagship ArcGIS extension in ArcDesktop that helps geologists qualitatively or quantitatively evaluate the potential of conventional plays. Our customers typically have historical maps, evaluations, spreadsheets and databases that we import into a new project that is built around well, field and block data from S&P Global Energy or Wood Mackenzie subscription data.

Player has the full set of conventional discovery, well failure, and prospect tools that are needed to properly evaluate conventional plays. The user-friendly full workflow can be seen on the toolbar of the latest Player releases.
From your Player project you can generate graphs, statistics and summary information from your defined AOI. All information collected and analyzed can be used for complete analyses at the basin, block or country level.
Player Lead & Prospect screening
The Player concept is to use simple screening volumetric tools to collect all the identified prospectivity quickly and efficiently and then in time only a subset of these will be high graded for drilling.
As an industry we spend a disproportionate amount of resources making these detailed volumetric estimates. At GIS-Pax, we think it’s better to initially capture more prospects and leads quickly rather than spend a significant amount of time analysing a few that may have been arbitrarily and mistakenly high-graded.
We have built links to all the major prospect tools in the industry used by the majority of companies including RoseRA (resource assessment) and GeoX.
