Bottom of the Barrel: How API (mis)levels may be costing you money

Before jumping directly into APIs, we’re gonna start with a short quiz we pulled from Well Servicing Magazine to give us a little background. Match the petroleum to its description:

1) West Texas sour
2) Kern River crude
3) Thunder Horse oil
4) Alberta oil sand

a) API gravity: about 32 degrees. Transported to shore by the Mardi Gras Transportation System.
b) Does not float in fresh water. Consists of bitumen.
c) Stinks to high heaven. Sulfur content > 1 percent.
d) API gravity: about 13 degrees. Thick as molasses.

How petroleum occurs in nature ultimately affects how it is produced and refined. Because of this, testing crude oil is an essential part of our business.

When oil is allowed to sit in a tank undisturbed, it eventually stratifies and the heaviest oil particles settle to the bottom of the tank. These heavier oil particles will have a lower API than the lighter particles that float near the top…

Now, if we take only one sample to determine the API of our tank, and that sample is taken near the bottom of the tank, our measured tank API will be lower than its true API average.

Many contracts in the oil purchasing business read something like this:

“Each party shall have the right to have a representative present to witness all gauges, tests and measurements; however, in the absence of either party’s representative, the gauges, tests and measurements of the other party shall be deemed to be correct.”

But let’s face it, most pumpers are to busy to oversee the sale of every tank. And, we realize that a slight variation may mean no consequences to the seller. However, the API level between the top and the bottom of a tank can vary by as many as 2 points. A faulty API determination could throw an entire tank of oil into a lower price bracket.

How to keep this from occurring?

To make sure you receive your due, GreaseBook recommends that pumpers take three measurements from every tank (one from the bottom, middle, and top). We understand this is a tough practice to implement, but if nothing else, make sure they take that measurement from the center of the tank. Hopefully your pumper will recognize and report any discrepancies between the purchaser’s API levels and his own.

By the way, here are the answers to the short quiz: <1) c; 2) d; 3) a; and 4) b.>

And, here’s a little extra info to boot…

Petroleum comes in many different forms. West Texas sour crude oil is drawn from the Permian Basin and normally has a sulfur content in the 1-2 percent range. Produced with the assistance of steam heat, Kern River crude comes from California and is a heavy oil. Discovered by BP and ExxonMobil, Thunder Horse is one of the biggest finds in the Gulf of Mexico. It’s located about 125 miles southeast of New Orleans, and lies below a water depth of about 6,000 feet. Oil sand from Canada has to be processed to make synthetic crude.

VERIFIED REVIEWS BY OUR CUSTOMERS

Ask us anything

F.A.Q.

This sounds complicated – I bet it’s complicated, right?

Not really. Simply share with us your Excel reports, paper gauge sheets, or the login to your existing legacy production software and we’ll take care of the rest.

Our petroleum engineers turn-key your entire setup, we’ll reach out once we’re done. Bada bing.

Getting updates from my Pumper is like pulling teeth – how are you any better?

You’re right. And, because no one leaves their house without their phone (and because our app works offline), we eliminate any excuse for your pumpers NOT to send you their data. See, we told you this would be easy.

What if my pumper doesn't have a smartphone?

In addition to both Android and Apple smartphones, the Greasebook also works on any tablet, laptop, or desktop.

What types of companies does Greasebook work with?

While Greasebook has been implemented in many of the country’s largest publicly traded production companies operating thousands of wells, Greasebook is focused on serving the small and mid-sized independent US-based oil & gas operators.

How do I access my production info?

Anywhere, anytime, on any device (phone, tablet, desktop or laptop).

The beauty of the app is once your pumpers start submitting their production via the Greasebook – anyone on your team can access production reports, graphs and well files from any device at any time.

It’s sorta like a centralized place from which everyone on your team can work, without all the calls, text messages and emails that would go on otherwise.

Do you guys handle well allocations?

All day long.

Is the information available to my investors and pumper, too?

Absolutely. As your pumpers continue to add tickets, comments, pressures, well tests and any other relevant information, your investors will have guest access to as much (or as little) information as you’d like.

Of course, they’ll only see production info for the wells in which they participate.

So, how is Greasebook different from a legacy-style oil and gas production system?

Oil & gas companies who run Legacy oil and gas software systems expose themselves to major risks (and minor annoyances…)

The complexity of traditional oil & gas production systems is twofold:

Software Problem: Legacy software systems are expensive, outdated, clunky and have extremely complex interfaces. In fact, because of all the support and manual interventions required, continuing to use outdated software can often be more costly than simply upgrading.
People Problem: Legacy software systems take an enormous amount of time to familiarize oneself with. And, anytime an employee quits, retires, or is let go the amount of training required for new employees can be significantly higher than for newer, more user-friendly software.

This is a lose/lose. What’s more, given all the set-up fees, training fees, support fees and the like the projected ‘savings’ never materialize and now your forced to contend with fluctuating hydrocarbon prices AND a bloated monthly OPEX.

Talk about getting stuck in the muck!

With Greasebook, office users are 99% proficient with the platform in about 20 minutes.

What can I access from the Greasebook?

Within 2 seconds – FROM YOUR SMARTPHONE – you’ll have your answer to any question regarding production, allocations, performance, well history files, commentary, run ticket reconciliation, Custom Reports, State reports, and more – all sliced and diced and customized at the Company, Operator, Battery, Well, State, County, Section, Township, Range, Acquisition, or even Supervisor level…

So how long have you been in business?

We’ve been at this for awhile. Greasebook was established in 2012 and now supports more than 400+ oil and gas operators (small ma & pops and publicly traded companies alike) across 20 States and is the fastest growing production software in the patch.

Where is the Greasebook team based?

The Greasebook corporate outpost is proudly located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 🤠📍

Is support available to Greasebook customers? How quickly should I expect a response?

The Greasebook helpdesk is staffed by Petroleum Engineers, Geologists, and Completions Experts Monday through Friday, 8AM to 5PM CST.

We have a real-time chat through which most questions are answered in 2 minutes or less.

Naturally, some questions are more complex and you’ll want to speak to someone over the phone. In this case, we aim to complete all callbacks within two hours of scheduling.👌

Of course, your Dashboard and Reports are available to you 24/7.

I wanna change but my pumpers don't...

We don’t blame them.

Pumpers have been burned by Legacy Production Systems in the past. 😵

However, given how much upside you stand to gain in the form of time savings and profit, DO NOT make the mistake of letting the tail wag the dog, folks!! 💸

Real talk: the average pumper takes about 8 minutes to learn Greasebook (and that goes for guys in their 80s still tending wells…)

Give us two days and we’ll make believers out of your entire pumping crew….

Still not convinced? Check out Greasebook’s “Pumper Wall of Love” by clicking here and let the pumpers tell you themselves 😘

Ya, but I’m busy in the field / with a new acquisition / with new drill and don’t have time to set this up.

Let us help you help yourself. Simply send us your existing production info, and we’ll assign a production engineer to turn-key your entire setup for you.

We’ll build your wells, your tank straps, your users and anything else you require.

Finally, once everything has been reviewed by your team, we’ll roll out your pumpers and either train them for you or with you while you focus on more important stuff.

I bet this is really expensive.

That’s not a question, but actually no.

The average pumper demands anywhere from $125 to $400 per month.

And depending on what you require, Greasebook is priced anywhere from $5-15 well/mo.

So, given how much more you’ll get out of your pumpers, how much we’ll streamline your operations, and how quickly we’ll get this all done for you, we’re actually kind of a bargain.

How can I trial the Greasebook risk free?

Our guarantee is two-pronged…

First, run the app for full 6 weeks in your operations. If you’re not completely satisfied, let us know and we’ll DOUBLE your money back.

Second, if for any reason you’d like your money back in first 30 days after paying simply let us know and it’s yours. 🤝

However, if you’re anything like our other 400+ operators you’ll be wondering why you didn’t do this 6 months ago…

You had me at “simple”, "cost-effective" and the "no bull-ogna" part – how soon can this start happening?

We’re ready when you are. Take the quiz and schedule a call here – depending how many operators we have in front of you, there’s a chance we can get you up and running by the end of next week.
