MXR-CS-gnscp 11/20 The companies joined forces to build a new reporting solution in the spring of 2012. Six months later, the first Energy Infrastructure Development Report was released. The subject is Eagle Ford, a Texas shale development site. The site runs from the US-Mexico border north of Laredo in a narrow band that extends northeast for several hundred miles toward Houston. "The development of Eagle Ford is a top priority for the industry," Francoeur says. "Our collaboration with Maxar enabled us to launch this first project in record time. It has received an enormous response in the marketplace and is already seen as a leading-edge report." industry ■ Oil and gas ■ Civil government uses ■ Intelligence ■ Change detection ■ Asset monitoring ■ Administration/management "In Bakken, there is a lot of infrastructure to build. In Marcellus, the permitting process makes it difficult to ascertain exactly when rigs can be constructed. The use of satellite imagery provides both customers with a new level of valuable intelligence." info@maxar.com maxar.com A collaborative undertaking Combining satellite imagery and expert analysis The report merges a combination of high-resolution satellite imagery and expert analysis from Genscape and Maxar. It provides unprecedented insight into the status of existing operations and updates on infrastructure construction, helping analysts objectively determine when new capacity is coming online and at what flow rates. "For the first time we can provide access to objective, midstream production data, regardless of location," Francoeur said. "It will revolutionize energy tracking, reporting, and analysis and bring a level of transparency the industry has never seen. It's like turning on the light in a dark room." Reports for an oil development site in Bakken, North Dakota and a natural gas development project in Marcellus, Pennsylvania, are already in progress. For the first time, energy marketers, traders, regulators and distributors have direct access to midstream production data, empowering decision-makers with an unparalleled analysis tool. The Energy Infrastructure Development Report, the industry's first real-time analysis tool that combines high-resolution satellite imagery with expert analysis, bringing new levels of transparency to the industry. Develop a reporting solution that provides a new level of timeliness and accuracy to track the progress of extremely complex, multi-year energy infrastructure construction projects.
