Thanks for all your support
over the past few years – I’ve received many positive comments and some
pleasant interactions in person when people find out that I’ve created this
app. There have been thousands of installs of various flavours of this tool and
so it is with heavy heart that I’ve decided to retire the original ResToolbox
application. With the retrofitted multi-language and multi-unit support, it
became too unwieldy for me to update efficiently any more. Additionally, at the
time of creation it was just a grab bag
of utilities – some of which I used, and others just because they were laying
around
So I started again, with
more thought to the functionality that would be offered, and the structure of
implementation.
Sorry to say that I won’t
be offering multi-language any more – that became a bugbear for me to keep
updating as I added or changed items
I plan to offer metric as
well as oilfield in the (not too distant) future – but in a way that makes it
easier to maintain going forward. For the initial release it will be oilfield
only
The big change – it will be
FREE for all!!
I’m releasing it as a
different app, so that people who have paid for the original version, and want
to keep the existing features that may not be in V2 can do so, but I have
removed V1 from the store.
A sample of new things to
look forward to;
1. Nodal analysis – for naturally flowing vertical gas and oil wells
2. Type curve generation – Including 2-Segment declines, defined a number
of ways including fitting to target EUR’s
3. Simple aggregation of type curves into field production profile
controlled by drill rate and plateau limit
4. Calculation of confidence interval of observed mean, given
observation count and estimated property variability.

I look forward to receiving
community suggestions of additional or enhanced functionality to implement
next.
