Our Research Programs

Our work is organized into four interconnected programs that form the foundation of our research agenda, linking subsurface analysis to market and policy outcomes.

Exploration & Subsurface

We integrate seismic interpretation, play fairway mapping, petrophysics, and basin modeling to identify de-risked prospects and near-field opportunities. Our goal is to build robust geological models that reduce investment risk.

Key Activities:
  • Play-based exploration (PBE) screening
  • Quantitative Interpretation (QI)
  • Prospect inventory and risk assessment
  • Carbon storage site maturation

Gas & Midstream Development

We analyze gas gathering, processing, LNG and FLNG options, CNG and LPG logistics, and power integration with realistic capex, opex, and tariffs. We aim to unlock bankable commercialization pathways for Africa's gas resources.

Key Activities:
  • Gas-to-power feasibility studies
  • Midstream infrastructure bottleneck analysis
  • Commercial modeling for LNG and FLNG projects
  • Flare gas monetization strategies

Operations & Production Optimization

We study artificial lift, production chemistry, integrity management, LDAR, and flare abatement with quantified emissions and cost outcomes. Our focus is on maximizing value from existing assets while improving ESG performance.

Key Activities:
  • Brownfield redevelopment analysis
  • Operational emissions benchmarking (methane, flaring)
  • Digital oilfield and predictive maintenance studies
  • Asset integrity and late-life management

Markets & Policy

We assess pricing frameworks, fiscal regimes, local content impacts, and cross-border trade with scenario analysis for investors and regulators. Our work helps stakeholders navigate the complex interplay of capital, commodities, and regulation.

Key Activities:
  • Fiscal regime benchmarking and competitiveness
  • Local content policy impact assessment
  • Analysis of carbon pricing and border adjustments
  • Geopolitical risk and energy security modeling
