WHAT WE'VE DONE
ADIL’s client was a new entrant to the oil and gas industry and were actively looking to acquire assets in the UKCS.
The client had a very experienced, but small, team and approached ADIL to undertake detailed and rapid due diligence on an acquisition target - a non-operated share in a UKCS development.
The main input requested by the client was the complex drilling schedule associated with their 1P, 2P and 3P reserves scenarios. This was an iterative process.
ADIL assembled a cross discipline team, with cross functional capability from across our service offering, utilising the breadth of our experience and expertise. The team took an integrated approach to the valuation of assets, recognising the crucial interface between the subsurface and facilities.
ADIL worked seamlessly with the client’s subsurface consultant and managed this interface on behalf of the client. A member of the ADIL team worked within the subsurface consultant’s office for the duration of the project to ensure strong integration.
