## Abstract

The embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods which update petroleum activity data and allows for geospatial modeling of the data in an interactive fashion or for the creation of a report to display customizable reports in accordance with user-preferred fields. Embodiments of the present invention also provide methods for collection of data from various Internet resources, including Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, and specifically allow user-friendly interaction to select various fields, such as bids, contract information, well production, and produce graphical representation or generate reports that accounts for the organization of the data.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system to create a geospatial display of petroleum well data and user-specified information comprising:
a server capable of collecting data from websites and from user input of petroleum-related data, the Petroleum-Related Data comprising at least one of the following variables:
API Well Number, Well Identifiers of any kind, Well Name, Mineral Lease information, State Location of Well, County Location of Well, District Location of Well, Field Name, Latitude of Well Location, Longitude of Well Location, Operator, Operator Number, Surface Owner, Oil Transported Information, Gas Transported Information, Specific Gravity, Well Status, Well Type, Horizontal Well Information, Cumulative Oil Production, Cumulative Gas Production, Cumulative Water, Depth of Well, Plug Back Total Depth of Well, Elevation of Well, and Permit Application;
the server having memory and a processor capable of organizing the petroleum-related data;
input means for inputting Customizable Client Information, the Customizable Client Information comprising at least one of the following variables in the Petroleum-Related Data as Preferred Client Data and further including one of the following fields: Customer's area of location interest, Customer past uses, Customer preferred list of Wells, Customer preferred list of Operators;
said server being able to use the Customizable Client Information to filter the Petroleum-Related Data so that it can generate a map showing only the selected customizable client information of the petroleum-related data.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The system according to claim 1 wherein the Customer's area of location is created by user input of a box that is selected over an area of interest on the map.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The system according to claim 2 wherein the Customer's area of location that is selected shows icons of each well within its area in accordance with Customizable Client Information.

### Claim 4 (depends on 2)

The system according to claim 2 wherein the Customer's area of location that is selected shows icons of each well within its area in accordance with Customizable Client Information.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system according to claim 1 wherein the selected Customer's area of location displays petroleum related pipelines in accordance with Customizable Client Information.

### Claim 6 (depends on 3)

The system according to claim 3 wherein a specific well icon can be selected from the Customer's area of location that will display individual information associated with the well of the well icon.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The system according to claim 6 wherein individual information of the well is well production information, and the production information is displayed in an overlay graph showing the well production in accordance with a selected amount of time.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

A system in accordance with claim 1 wherein the system allows for the overlays of forecasting overlays of individual specified wells.

### Claim 9

A system to build a report of petroleum well data and user-specified information comprising:
a server capable of collecting data from websites and from user input of Petroleum-Related Data, the Petroleum-Related Data comprising at least one of the following variables:
API Well Number, Well Identifiers of any kind, Well Name, Mineral Lease information, State Location of Well, County Location of Well, District Location of Well, Field Name, Latitude of Well Location, Longitude of Well Location, Operator, Operator Number, Surface Owner, Oil Transported Information, Gas Transported Information, Specific Gravity, Well Status, Well Type, Horizontal Well Information, Cumulative Oil Production, Cumulative Gas Production, Cumulative Water, Depth of Well, Plug Back Total Depth of Well, Elevation of Well, and Permit Application;
the server having memory and a processor capable of organizing the petroleum-related data;
input means for inputting Customizable Client Information, the Customizable Client Information comprising at least one of the following variables in the Petroleum-Related Data as Preferred Client Data and further including one of the following fields: Customer's area of location interest, Customer past uses, Customer preferred list of Wells, Customer preferred list of Operators;
said server being able to use the Customizable Client Information to filter the Petroleum-Related Data so that it can generate a report showing only the selected customizable client information of the petroleum-related data.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

A system in accordance with claim 8 further including the ability to export the report into a spreadsheet.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)

A system in accordance with claim 8 further including the ability to individual select wells for the generation of user-specified report.

### Claim 12

Method of collecting petroleum related data and creating a report showing customizable data including:
collecting Petroleum-Related Data from publicly available websites and input from users, the Petroleum-Related Data including at least one of the following variables:
API Well Number, Well Identifiers of any kind, Well Name, Mineral Lease information, State Location of Well, County Location of Well, District Location of Well, Field Name, Latitude of Well Location, Longitude of Well Location, Operator, Operator Number, Surface Owner, Oil Transported Information, Gas Transported Information, Specific Gravity, Well Status, Well Type, Horizontal Well Information, Cumulative Oil Production, Cumulative Gas Production, Cumulative Water, Depth of Well, Plug Back Total Depth of Well, Elevation of Well, and Permit Application;
organizing the Petroleum-Related Data, and
collecting user-specified fields for filtering the Petroleum-Related Data to display only the user-specified fields.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The method according to claim 12 wherein the collected user-specified fields is used to generate a report.

### Claim 14 (depends on 12)

The method of claim 12 wherein the report is capable of being exported into a spreadsheet.

### Claim 15 (depends on 12)

The method of claim 12 wherein the collected user-specified fields is sued to generate a map.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The method of claim 15 wherein the map can display icons of wells associated with a user-selected box of an area of interest.

### Claim 17 (depends on 16)

The method of claim 16 wherein an icon of the icons of wells can be selected to display individual information of the selected well.

### Claim 18 (depends on 17)

The method of claim 17 wherein the individual information of the selected well includes well production information.

### Claim 19 (depends on 18)
