Reserves Evaluation to Support your Business
Regulatory Reporting Requirements and Asset Valuation: Reserves are a significant component of a company’s financial statement and can affect impairments. Publicly traded companies follow established rules and guidelines to protect investors for how companies are financially assessed, and report their assets and cash flow. Governments may also regulate reporting to support the development and modification of legislation and policies aimed at enhancing business confidence and securing investment.
Financing:Trustworthy reserves reports are crucial for attracting investment. Independent third-party reserves validation from a credible firm with a globally established track record mitigates risk for investors. This enhances trust and improves the likelihood of investment. Governments can attract foreign energy investment while protecting national interests, communities and the environment.

Mergers and Acquisitions: Sound valuations underpin strategic M&A decisions. Access to trustworthy information – competent and independent valuations – limits risk for the company and its stakeholders. Having a consistent benchmark to assess opportunities is critical for success and continued portfolio optimization.
Portfolio Strategy: Maintaining consistent and fair reserves reporting practices helps E&P companies maintain stakeholder confidence and supports portfolio and corporate decisions. A focused and disciplined approach to project and portfolio management enhances performance and lays a strong foundation for long-term growth. Pipeline companies also rely on this information to determine whether new pipelines, extensions or expansions are needed and what the potential upside of an opportunity may mean in terms of supply and demand.
