Case Study: Birch Permian saves time and money with Quorum Software's Enersight

Birch Permian Saves Time and Money Utilizing Enersight for Efficient Evergreen Planning

Birch Permian, a privately held E&P company, faced complex water management challenges in its Midland Basin assets. Issues included managing frac schedules, flowback water, and uncertain disposal capacity due to regulatory restrictions, all of which required a more efficient planning solution. To address this, they turned to Quorum Software and its Enersight platform for a more streamlined and detailed analysis.

Quorum Software’s solution involved enhancing Birch Permian’s Enersight model to integrate frac water usage, flowback modeling, and third-party disposal contracts. This allowed for automatic water allocation to recycling first, with remaining water sent to the lowest-cost disposal facilities. The results provided superior visibility into water spending, identified significant cost-saving opportunities, and enabled faster, more accurate evergreen planning for different operational scenarios.
