4. Spotfire User’s Conference Oct. 2003 PC-Reserves/Spotfire Interface Definitions: PC-Reserves: Reserves reporting Database Opco: operating company RAC: Reserves Audit Committee SBU: Strategic Business Unit Asset team: field level team Introduction

5. Spotfire User’s Conference Oct. 2003 PC-Reserves/Spotfire Interface Project Objectives  Standardize format for reserves data and knowledge transfer between project teams and groups  Improve consistency of reserves data  Increase discovery rate for opportunities  Provide a platform for enhancing other work processes related to reserves analysis

6. Spotfire User’s Conference Oct. 2003 PC-Reserves/Spotfire Interface Steps To Support the Reserves Review Process:  Input/Access Reserves Data  QC Data  Report Data – consolidate and merge Workflow: PC Reserves – Excel - Powerpoint or PC Reserves – Spotfire

7. Spotfire User’s Conference Oct. 2003 PC-Reserves/Spotfire Interface  Time spent populating database  Used for all ChevronTexaco fields  PC-Reserves program is robust and versatile (complicated).  Data display (plotting) is limited to exporting data to Excel.  Valuable data is not being used to its fullest. PC Reserves - corporate reserves database Challenges
