About SLAM!
Fed
up with calling your broker for an update on your project and
getting an answer three days later? SLAM! puts an end to the
snail’s pace communications from your landman. Face it, this is an
industry that thrives on real-time answers. When you log onto
SLAM!, you get real-time project and prospect reports with
corresponding real-time Geographical Information System maps in
seconds. Not days.
The
most advanced GIS
on the market.
In
the overwhelming realm of exploration, your leases, permits and
surface damages are only the tip of the iceberg. With our
exclusive software, SLAM!, you now have the ability to see every
facet of every land aspect of your project in real-time.
These
days, the in-house landman can’t always be in the field watching
what’s happening, but he or she can use the best remote control
system available. In this field, the undisputed leader is SLAM!.
With our proprietary, state-of-the-art, on-line Geographical
Information System platform, SLAM!, you can see all land-related
aspects of your project in real-time, all the time. This
easy-to-use platform allows you to stay up-to-date and
up-to-the-minute without getting caught up in tedious issues.
No other land
management company has anything like it. SLAM is a proprietary
software available only to OGM clients. Quite simply, SLAM! is the
most comprehensive land management tool in the industry, bar none.
Providing customers with real-time GIS maps of your projects
reflecting the status of all contracts. With SLAM!, OGM manages
the entire land portion of your project so you can focus on
getting the deal done. And we do it more efficiently that any
other company in the industry.
From Your Desktop
Want to work up
some theoretical units? Simply click on the SLAM! Unit Tool and
draw your proposed unit. This is a tool you can utilize without
ever leaving the office. It will map your unit and provide you with a report showing the unit
size and NRI, as well as showing pooling restrictions/requirements
and royalty information on a lease-by-lease and tract-by-tract
basis. Don't like this unit? Just delete the tract or draw it over again. It’s a simple tool
that allows you to draw your unit, make adjustments and then SLAM!
will display a report on the unit you envisioned. The SLAM! Unit
Tool is extremely user-friendly and takes a few minutes to learn.
It’s as simple as that.
Mapping
Tired of
wrestling with a huge volume of paper maps while trying to
complete your project? You’re not alone. SLAM! can make your job
easier. Our real-time Geographical Information System mapping
software lets you see the maps that are key to your project
on-line, 24-hours a day, seven days a week. Our state-of-the-art
mapping module lets you zoom-in, zoom-out, see aerial and
topographic features, measure distances and buffer objects.
Additionally, with the real-time data concerning ownership,
leasing and permitting status residing in the GIS, you get the
added assurance that your maps are always current – and they’re
always only a click away. Your project maps are also available to
you and your colleagues via e-mail – showing expirations,
obligations and addendums. In the exploration business,
yesterday’s record of land-related issues is worthless. A
real-time mapping and reporting system is invaluable. With SLAM!,
you’ll never have to rely on maps that don’t reflect the current,
up-to-the-minute status of your project.
Budget Controls
The enormous
number of components involved in getting an oil and gas project
off the ground requires tight, reliable and timely budget
controls. At crucial points during the life of a project, these
controls need to be invoked on a daily, if not hourly basis.
SLAM!’s budget control module puts real-time, cradle-to-grave
budget management at your fingertips.
SLAM! takes the
AFE to the world of land management. Want a ballpark estimate of
your land costs? Using SLAM!, OGM can give you a free estimate of
your land costs on any given project. If the costs meet your
requirements, put OGM to work for you. As we move deeper into the
job, we’ll give you a highly refined sense of the dollars it will
take to handle the land side of your deal. Our goal is to be
within a ten percent margin of our AFE.
The flexibility
of SLAM! is remarkable. The budget control component of SLAM! lets
you see the land AFE 24-7. You can see your original land AFE,
dollars spent, dollars remaining, and the percentage of project
completion. SLAM! can also alert you when the numbers begin to
deviate from your AFE – eliminating unpleasant surprises and
keeping you on-mission to getting your project completed on time
and on budget.
Reports
Comprehensive,
current and reliable records of the status of ownership, leasing
and surface matters are absolutely crucial to the timely
completion of your projects. On this front, SLAM! is second to
none with real-time ownership and lease status reports that are
tied to our world-class Geographical Information System mapping
module. Best of all, you can see all land-related issues regarding
your project on-line, 24-hours a day, seven days a week – without
ever leaving your desk.
SLAM! eliminates
the headache of mountains of paper records that may be unrelated
to your current projects. In addition to your typical ownership,
lease/purchase, tract summary and complete tract reports, SLAM!
offers several other reports that bring an added dimension to the
land side of your project management. You can even view and print
lease instruments as scanned documents. SLAM! automatically
exports all relevant data to the following reports that you can
access at the click of a mouse:
• Lease Check
Report – reflects the cursory title review of an area of interest.
The report reflects mineral owner’s name and address, acreage
content, leasehold status (open, leased, HBP), last lessee and
address, if available in the records - the terms of the last lease
of record (royalty, primary term, special provisions), HBP
information.
• Ownership
Report – data specific to each parcel of land. The report reflects
owner’s name, address, percentage of interest owned, net mineral
acres owned, and leasehold status. The report also includes
comments related to title issues found in the chain of title
(gaps, missing probates, liens/mortgages, defective legal
descriptions, etc.)
• Open Acreage
Report – When the project is coming to a close where you are more concerned about a few
unleased interests, this report will allow you to focus on those
that are still to be signed instead of having to deal with the
ones
that are already done. This report gives you a schedule of all
interests not currently leased or HBP, the tracts they are under
and their interests.
• Held-by-Others
Report – includes information of other players in the area of
interest on a tract-by-tract, mineral owner basis.
• Prospect
Summary Report – Along with totals for the following fields
covering the entire prospect, this report reflects summary data
pertaining to each tract in the prospect regarding gross acres,
net mineral acres signed, percentage signed, total bonus spent –
along with the net mineral acres and percentage and dollar
consideration applicable to any committed interest.
• Prospect Detail
Report – Covering the entire prospect, tract-by-tract, this report
reflects data for each mineral owner as to net mineral acres
signed and bonus paid, along with the net mineral acres and dollar
consideration applicable to any committed interest. In addition,
this report reflects net acres signed and committed for each
tract.
• Rentals Due
Report – This is a report of all rentals due for any applicable
time frame. It reflects the date due and the amount of delay
rental obligations due in a tract-by-tract, owner-by-owner format.
• Schedule of
Leases – This report is an overview, on an owner-by-owner basis,
of the acquired instruments’ listing dates, bonus paid, and
rentals.
• Obligation
Report – similar to a Rentals Due Report, but also includes other
possible obligations - including options to lease and options to
extend both options and/or leases. This report can be generated
for any applicable monthly time frame or be all-inclusive.
• Expiration
Report – This report reflects the expiration of all leases. Like
the Rentals Due Report and the Obligation Report, the Expiration
Report can be specific to any applicable time frame, or
all-inclusive.
• Provisions
Report – lists all leases containing a selected provision. On-line
accessible maps can be colored to reflect specific provisions.
• Assignment
Exhibit "A" Report – The client can utilize this report to
generate exhibits for assignments, unit designations and other
applicable documents.
