Zusammenfassung:In a method for estimating crude oil production, a geographic (or market) region is first identified and selected, and a value of natural gas pipeline activity for the region is determined. That value of natural gas pipeline activity for the region is then calibrated against historical crude oil production data for the region to establish a model for estimating the crude oil production for the region. Subsequently, as natural gas production data for a particular time period is received, it is input into the model to estimate crude oil production in the region, and that estimated crude oil production for the region and for the particular time period is reported to third-party market participants.
