ComboCurve

A new episode of ComboCast drops this Wednesday. For Episode 7, we’re joined by Ian Myers, Managing Partner at Kalibr for a deep dive into asset-backed securitization (ABS) and the growing role it’s playing in oil & gas. We get into how ABS can create a cost-of-capital advantage, what these structures mean for operators, and why cost optimization, underwriting, and operational strategy matter more than ever. If you’ve been hearing more about ABS across the industry and want to understand what’s driving the momentum, this episode is for you.

Building a mental map of the Midland Basin takes time, unless you have the right tools. In this clip from episode 6 of ComboCast, we talk about how quickly engineers can get the lay of the land, curve large well sets, and refine forecasts using diagnostics, all without spending weeks doing it manually. What used to take a month can now take a matter of days.

A little fun before the weekend. What oil & gas technology actually deserves S-tier status? In this clip from ComboCast Episode 6, the team ranks some of the biggest technologies and concepts to shape the industry, from horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing to refracs, digital twins, fiber optics, and even ComboCurve. A few of these rankings may catch some heat on LinkedIn, but we’re up for the debate. Think we got the tier list wrong? Drop your rankings in the comments, then watch the full clip on YouTube to see where everything landed and why.

"You have to think about the impact the geology might be having on your production—and on the curves you’re generating.” In this Clip from episode 6 of ComboCast, the team discusses why integrating geology with production data is essential when building type curves and evaluating basin performance.

“Why does anyone generate a basin study internally?” A basin study helps teams understand: • How activity and performance vary spatially • Which zones may be present or prospective • How many distinct type curve / type well areas may exist • Whether an opportunity aligns with or challenges existing assumptions In this clip from episode 6 of ComboCast, the team discusses how having fresh basin studies on-hand can support faster screening, test an organization's assumptions, and lead to more informed evaluations & decision making.

In this clip from Episode 6 of ComboCast, Ben Gonzalez explains why Andrew Corman’s basin study is especially valuable now, and how years of operator results are making forward-looking analysis more reliable.
