Case Study: a large US operator company adds $510k to earnings with Actenum scheduling software

Actenum scheduling software adds $510k to operator’s earnings

A large US operator in the Permian basin was struggling with an inefficient, spreadsheet-based scheduling tool. This outdated system was cumbersome, unreliable, and could not evaluate the financial impact of different schedule scenarios, forcing schedulers to perform slow, manual work. These shortcomings led to frequent and costly operational conflicts. The operator turned to Actenum and implemented its DSO/Upstream scheduling software to address these challenges.

Actenum's solution provided an integrated platform that combined all well lifecycle activities into a single schedule, enabling automatic optimization and scenario analysis. This allowed the operator to evaluate the best possible sequences and resource allocations. As a direct result of using Actenum's software, the operator achieved an annual earnings improvement of $510,000, stemming from reduced rig move costs, improved personnel efficiency, and a more reliable scheduling process.
