RFDbase

The industry’s largest Rock, Fluid, and PVT Database

Source Rock – Oil – Gas – PVT – Water – XRD – XRF – ICP-MS – TruSat

GeoMark Research’s on-demand rock, fluid, and PVT data delivers data-driven decisions for discovering and managing earth’s natural resources.

For the past 30 years, this exclusive, curated dataset, has been trusted by energy professionals around the world. Just as our industry evolves to meet new energy demands. RFDbase continues to grow in depth and breadth. From hydrocarbon production to critical mineral exploration, trust RFDbase to provide the quality data you need. 

Overview

Data should drive all exploration and production decisions.  Being able to access accurate, significant data quickly is the key to success at every stage of your asset’s life cycle.  That’s why we’ve amassed and continue to build and maintain a centralized rock and fluid database, easily accessed via our secure RFDbase portal, from anywhere, at any time.  With the option to customize your subscription to any area of interest, you can have 1,000s of subsurface data points at your fingertips.  You also have the option to load your own proprietary data into your own private view.  This allows you to spend less time looking for data, and more time analyzing and moving on to decision making.

Our comprehensive, integrated rock and fluid database—the largest of its kind in the world—contains critical, proprietary information from oil, gas, and rock sources, along with data from the public domain. The database is continually refreshed with automatic updates as soon as new analytical results or other relevant data are available.

RFDbase is the convenient way to access data subscriptions (described below), as well as proprietary data performed in our lab for your company, or research studies you can purchase from GeoMark —all in one location.

Why RFDbase?

RFDbase enhances your data-driven decisions by filling in data gaps to further reduce uncertainty and mitigate risk when estimating the economic viability of a given play, or a single well. Arm your subsurface experts (i.e. geologists, geophysicists, geochemists, petrophysicists, engineers, etc.) with these competitive advantages:
⦿
Eliminate the need to find, gather, and cleanse data. Gain immediate access to a trustworthy dataset comprised of more than 500,000 oil/gas/rock samples taken from every major petroleum basin in the world
⦿
Instantaneously view the hydrocarbon properties of more than 16,000 oils from every major basin in the world for immediate economic analyses and facilities planning
⦿
Confirm your existing rock and fluid property trends and ‘likeology’ to derisk drilling
⦿
Identify areas in a basin and play that require changes in trends and interpretation approach based on the rock and fluid dataset
⦿
Immediately access Quick-look analog associations and assessments, with the related economic analysis, for exploration to appraisal cycle drilling
⦿
Enable your team’s ability to build, supplement, or calibrate data analytics models with adequate rock and fluid property distributions
⦿
Supply your Drilling, Reservoir, and Facilities Engineers with critical data, such as API gravity, fluid composition for casing and facilities designs, etc.

RFDbase Subscriptions & Data Packages

RFDbase gives you the flexibility to access the exact type of data you need. By subscribing to RFDbase, anyone in your company can search, display, and download data according to their key interests and goals, and then integrate it into active projects.

We offer the following subscription options, depending on your needs:

Premium Subscriptions

A premium RFDbase subscription includes extensive data for one or more geographical areas and provides the lowest cost per dataset. This data, available in every major petroleum basin in the world, includes oil, produced gas, source rock, mud gas, PVT, and formation water analyses for your area(s) of interest, with continual additions (~10,000 source rocks and ~300 oils added each year). You’ll never go hunting through individual files searching for random rock and fluids data again! It’s all conveniently stored in the portal, ready to help your team make informed, data-driven decisions.

Premium subscribers receive these benefits:

⦿
View 100% of the samples available from GeoMark’s rock and fluid collection within a given regional scope
⦿
Get immediate access to any new, region-specific samples and/or analytical data as they are loaded into the database
⦿
Leverage the full power of the RFDbase portal, allowing you to store, organize, and view all of the data you have access to—in a single database, searchable by the parameters you set (regional area, specific TOC, GOR ranges, etc.)
⦿
View your own proprietary data, generated in our Lab, in context of the regional area by seeing it alongside your subscription data

Customized Data Packages – RFDpro

A customized data package lets you create custom databases for your specific use, with the ability to view, search, and compare your data utilizing RFDbase portal functionality. These database packages are static for the entire subscription period, according to the initial design (with no new samples or data added), allowing you to select a single data-type, a single county or smaller regional area, or even a single well or sample.

A customized data package provides these benefits:

⦿
Define the precise database required for a unique purpose, designed by:
⦿
Geographic data (i.e. for an area of interest)
⦿
Characteristics of the data (i.e. analyses fitting a set of criteria)
⦿
A three-year license to the data in your customized data package
⦿
Full access to the RFDbase portal, where you can search, compare, and view your data package alongside your own proprietary data that’s been generated in our Lab
⦿
Flexible payment options that allow you to pay for three years of access to your data package in a single payment, or three annual installment

FAQ

Q. How do I know my proprietary data will not be shared with other subscribing members?

A. GeoMark designed RFDbase with security as the primary focus. The system meets, or exceeds, all cybersecurity requirements derived from the industry-recognized Center for Internet Security (CIS) Controls. Multiple redundant policies, workflows, and checks have been holistically incorporated to ensure that the physical and digital nature of your data is protected and prevented from being compromised. An entitlement structure recognizes which analyses have been activated for each user, prohibiting your proprietary data from ever being shared with anyone outside of your organization.

Q. How frequently are data added to RFDbase?

A. Data are added throughout the year for premium subscriptions and are available to subscribers as soon as they enter GeoMark’s database. Samples are not added annually to customized data packages

Q. How can I tell what data have been added?

A. Subscribers receive quarterly updates, including a map that highlights regional areas where RFDbase data were refreshed during that quarter. This alert is not customized by individual user or company, but is for all users. Additionally, RFDbase has the ability to initiate a pop-up window for users upon logging in/out. When companies enter or leave significant subscription items, this pop-up can be set to announce any subscription changes. Lastly, all data have ‘DateCreated’ and ‘DateModified’ fields that are searchable within RFDbase to find added or changed information. For further questions, email rfdbase@geomarkresearch.com , and we will quickly identify records that may have been added to your particular database subscription(s).

Q. How are RFDbase users maintained?

A. GeoMark does not charge a fee for individual users to access RFDbase. Any employee of a subscribing client, with approval from that client, may be granted access to the system. GeoMark can maintain the user list or specified users of subscribing companies may control their own user list (adding/removing users or determining the data to which users have access).

Q. Can RFDbase data be tight holed?

A. Access to data can be limited to the analysis performed by sample, by data type. Meaning that, for a specific sample, if oil and source rock analysis was performed, we can provide access to the oil and the rock data separately. However, we cannot separate access to the individual source rock measurements. If access is granted by data type (i.e. source rock) for a specific sample, you gain access to all data for that data type. Access permissions can be managed by GeoMark or by clients. The flexibility of RFDbase allows for multiple user groups to be defined within the system. Each group can be set up to have access to specific analyses, and then users are assigned to those groups. Upon login, the system determines all of the groups to which the user has access, and then activates all of the unique analyses tied to those groups.
