Follow on Google News | New Startup Empowers Shale Mineral Owners as Oil & Gas Remains in the BasementShaleCast provides oil and gas royalty income forecasts for mineral owners and a check against unscrupulous mineral buyers.
By: ShaleCast "We set out to revolutionize the mineral owner experience for the millions of royalty owners generated by the shale boom," said Benjamin Hall, Co-founder and CEO of ShaleCast. Hall added, "Imagine having an asset two miles under your feet that's probably worth more than the house you're living in, but you have no idea how to value it, much less get a fair price if you want to sell it. That's the predicament facing mineral owners all over America." Behind each well forecast, lies a massive database and algorithm that crunches all the historical production figures from each of the wells to produce royalty forecasts. According to Co-founder and CEO Mauck, "Our proprietary algorithm uses all this data as the backbone to model the future behavior of well output in specific geographic regions. We then couple this with daily updates from the futures market and information we collect from each mineral owner to localize the results." ShaleCast forecasts are intended to be a rough approximation of future royalties for the next 15 years. In testing, ShaleCast forecasts have proven to be highly accurate, especially when 15 months or more of production history is available for a well. The accuracy improves automatically with each new production figure received for a well. "Our research indicates that the landowners need to understand the value of their royalties for financial planning, estate, and pricing considerations." About ShaleCast ShaleCast is a joint venture of social media network American Energy Communications, which publishes sites GoHaynesvilleShale.com, GoMarcellusShale.com, EagleFordForum.com, and ALL Consulting, a leading energy and environmental consulting group based in Tulsa, OK.
