ABSTRACT: Over the past two decades many oil companies have consistently under-performed in returning the economic metrics that were the basis of investment decisions. Further, today's business climate many companies are finding it imperative to do more with less. This requires making faster, smarter decisions that use an appropriate level of technical analysis with the acquisition of appropriate data. But what is 'appropriate' and how is it impacted by the presence of uncertainty?
