They are how a company interprets internal contol laws
What is internal control and processes
Based on SOX, makes it a law that if a financial statement is wrong, jail time could be spent. Financial statements are to be made public every quarter
Name 4 Key internal controls and decribe them
Segregation of duties - splitting up duties so more than one person is responsible
Proper authorization - a manager can only approve or expense so much before it needs to move up the food chain.
Physical safeguards (FP24) - safeguards in place so assets cannot be sold or money stolen i.e fuel cards and laptops (asset stamped on laptop)
Audits of ICQ and balance sheet - make sure they are correct and everything is being done correctly
Delegation of authority - One person can purchase it but someone else must approve it

We also need to recognize cost in the period they were incurred.
(We cant make a provision for the xmas party in August just bc that was a really good month)
What are the 3 different financial statements?

What is IBT and how is the percentage calculated?
IBT is income before taxes and its the best way to compare revenue bw districts and countries. Its % is calc by IBT/Revenue
What is EPU? and how does it work
Equipment plan update - it is forecasted for 8 quarters (CAPEX) and is a list on everything thats needed, updated every 2 quarters, and is sent way up the Food chain (Catherine) she will allocate for NAL, Groody will allocate then for the basins, and then Will allocate for his districts
What is CAPEX?
Capital expenditure, good indicator on investment and growth
How much money will we get for Fixed assets
usually around 10% of revenue
8 quarters, update every 2, allocated funds
Older ur tools get, more M&S u may need to fix, new toold, and M&S goes down
What is DIR? DSO?
DIR is days invoice and its how long it takes for as soon as job ends to the ticket being invoiced.
DSO - days sales outstanding, how long it takes to pay (Invoice, client sends back, we send back) get paid
What is Age profile?
NBV/GBV (20% is a good #) we are at 30 due to FMI-HD, Lithoscanner, ADT, etc
Too high, too much new tech, too low, might need some new tech
What are 3 asset indicators and what do they mean?

What is a matrix organization
So we have the groups heirarchy then it branches out to OFS
Ex) Brian Groody reports to Catherine (WL) and to Robert Drummond (OFS)
Whats different bw shared and direct costs?
Shared costs is what a certain group splits cost (i.e Wills salary split bw his districts)
Direct cost is what is directly your own cost
How do we plan and forecast?
RAMP and CAPEX
RAMP = Revenue*Activity*Marketshare*Price
Balance sheet? Indicators?

What is liquidity?
The ability to have the cash to keep going
is good when NI is up, DSO under control, fixed assets at optimum, inventory as low as possible

Well head equip
What is Archies Equation?
What are dips
They are tadpoles telling you direction of a dip
The head part is magnitude and the tail part is downdip direction
Why would the client want dips?
To see where layers are going
To Drill up dip
Find the trends
Why does caliper calibration need to be correct on FMI
It could cause to get wrong angles on dip
What is a rosette plot?
Cluster every 100 ft on dip log
4x1 is less filtered - general structure
12x2 more filtered better overall pic
Why would you follow a strike instead of a fault?
The strike would intersect all the faults its opposite of a fault
What is a stratographic log and why would you want to look at it?
Looking at very small intervals (0.5 ft) and if you want to produce a river and therefore log several FMI wells and pick pts
Why FMI-HD here in Midland
We have high res. and high salinity wells, the other FMI easier to get saturated
If i wanted to confirm open fractures what other tool would I use?
FMI and UBI
Always run SS as well
What is in a petroleum system
Source, trap, resevoir, migration path, seal, T,P, and Time
Trap - Structural and sedimentary
Seal - Rock, no perm, cant pass through
What is difference bw Fault and fold?
Fold comes from ripping the rock apart, and fold comes from compression overtime
Difference bw Carbonate vs claustic
Carbonate is very well sorted, and claustic has decreased perm due to poorly sorted
Carbonate - Reef
Claustic - River fishing
How is a vug made?
Percipitation buildup and then dissolution
How is SS diff from DSI?
SS is characterized, more trans, more receivers, chirp freq, can measure all freq at once
What is default for ECS and its also the parameter we log in
Arenite
Arkose and subarkose are what?
Parameters that can be change din ECS related to feldspars
What gives us best indicator in clay? Organics?
Throium/Uranium
What percentage of clay do you need in order to perform Archies and consider a clean formation?
15
How could u see a water wet zone? and what is an example of one
High poro, low res - carbonates and sands are water wet before they come into contact with crude oil
How to tell if there are HC in well?
High poro, high res, clean
What is CMRs main product?
Pore size distribution
Lg pore size is better than small
How do you find archies (Sw) in a non clean zone?
Find a clean zone on log and get Rt from there Rw = Rt. Then go back to zone of interest and find Rt and use the previous Rt for Rw. Cross plot porosity
What does WCLP mean in ELAN?
Wet clay porosity
What is dual water model
Swb= Poro(Wb)/Poro(Total)
This derivation of the Dual Water equations is valid for any rock with any mixture of fluids
It is possible to use the Dual Water Model to make a manual computation of a shaly zone.
However computer programs are best equipped to handle the calculations.
What is effective saturation?
Sw that is in free fluids
Swf = poro (free water)/poro(effective)
How would u calc using Dual water model?
Calc Rwf from RWA (Rwf = Rwa)
Calc Rwb from nearby shale using Rwa method
Get poro of cross plot
Determine Vs from Gr
Compute Swb from Vshale and WCLP
Calc Swt and Swf
Poisons ratio? Youngs modulus?
Mechanical property - how fat will a marshmellow get if u squish it
Stress on a rock --> fractures
How do we know anisotropy?
Times are different in slow and fast shear
Left to right is different form north to south
What is anisotropy?
Isotropy?
Directionally dependant (not the same)
Same in all directions
what are 4 types of dispersion?
Homo Iso - Natural Rock
Homo Aniso - Fractures parallel
Inhomo Iso - damaged BH
Inhomo Aniso - Crossover stress induced
Why are horizontal properties important and what wave can see these ?
Bc its direction of max/min stress and stonely waves can due to flowing up the BH (vertical wave)
Sonic scanner can correct for dispersion and so can DSI
T or F?
False, only SS can correct for it
What 2 elements are as clay?
Carbonate?
Illite and chlorite
Dolomite and calcite
Why is ELAN present on sonic log
need it to do mechanical properties bc static young modulus gives pressure needed to make fracture compress but wont grow back
Why is ADT formation salinity independant?
Interacts with water molecule only
What do bins for CMR represent?
8 of them and each a diff pore size
What is a good percentage to perf at porosity wise?
If effective poro is >8% then maybe
ELAN density and ECS density, which one will be lower and why?
ELAN density due to kerogen
ELAN density higher than ECS dens when?
When heavier minerals are there like Chlorine
Whats life cycle of rock?
Its like a crayone at the Igneous model and then more u use it the more i breaks down (Sedimentary), then melts down into ME rock, and back to IG
