My Reality Distortion Field

In comparison to the user community I think my job will be fairly easy. As the CEO of People, Ideas & Objects I only have to concern myself with the software. Ensure that we’re developing exactly what the user community wants and needs, and collect the money from the producers. I have other roles such as within the user community, but for the purpose of this post I won’t go into those. The user community member can’t limit themselves to just the development of the software. They need to think of the task ahead of them in terms of integration and implementation of the software that they design and build, deliver it to the producer, load their data and ensure that they are operational, and then support them with the service provider organizations that they will need to build to deliver the software and services to the producers. They will also iterate on the software’s design and provide leadership to the industry through the changes they make to the software and services they provide to their client producers.

And they will do this in the highly competitive sub-industry of service providers that they work with to deliver their services in. The basis of competition between the service providers is on specialization and the division of labor. As they explore these tools to more effectively deliver their services to the producers the knowledge and understanding of “what” and “how” they do what they do will change significantly. It will be in this way that the oil and gas industry, from the base of the price maker strategy, will be able to leverage further gains in terms of profitability and value generation. All economic growth is a result of specialization and the division of labor.

In turn it will be this way that we are able to expand the deliverability of the Canadian and U.S. oil and gas industry to address the objective of being energy independent on the North American continent. First the industry must become profitable. Then it must deal with the limited resource base of engineers and geologists. Also deal with the expanding demand of engineering and geology required in each barrel of oil. Then it can expand the throughput of the industry to achieve the objective of energy independence, profitably. We now have the reserves in both the oil and gas domains. Enough to keep us going for the rest of the century.

So yes, I look at my job as being relatively easy and doable. The user community demands for leadership within the industry can be captured in these three prior paragraphs. Just deliver that to society and your done.

Many feel I harp too much about the bureaucrats. Does anyone see these needs coming about from this bunch? Setting in stark contrast the failure that is the current oil and gas industry is my responsibility to show the inability of this vehicle to get us to our destination. We need to stop fooling ourselves that we are ok when we are the furthest thing from it. The only thing you can say that is positive about the oil and gas industry is that the bureaucrats are comfortable. Everything else is a failure.

It will therefore depend on the people within the industry who set out to prepare their application to the People, Ideas & Objects user community. And begin that simple task that I described above.

The Preliminary Specification, our user community and service providers provide the dynamic, innovative, accountable and profitable oil and gas producer with the most profitable means of oil and gas operations. Setting the foundation for North America’s energy independence. People, Ideas & Objects Revenue Model specifies the means in which investors can participate in these user defined software developments. Users are welcome to join me here.

A Transition, Not a Switch

As we begin the process of changing the oil and gas industry to be dynamic, innovative, accountable and profitable. We need to think of this change in terms of a transition from this bureaucratic, low performing dead weight. It won’t be a switch that suddenly is hit and the Preliminary Specification, our user community and service providers are operational. This transition will come about by way of the new leadership of the oil and gas industry. That leadership coming from the user community.

As much as I like to state that software defines and supports the organization. In order to make any changes to an organization, first you have to design those changes within the software and then implement them into the organization. We also have the inverse situation here at People, Ideas & Objects. We could build the perfect software that meets the needs of the issues of the oil and gas producers, service industry and producers. Without our user community determining what that software is, developing the service provider organizations to deliver the People, Ideas & Objects software and services to the producers. Then nothing will happen. Our software would be unable to be used without these new organizations being built to support it.

Yesterday I put out some broad outlines of the road ahead for the user community. How we will organize first and foremost. That we will remain unconstrained by the physical world and move quickly through the issues and opportunities that we find and resolve. Designing the systems that will build the value for the industry. We also defined how the user community would have access to the cloud computing infrastructure of Oracle Fusion Applications to give them an understanding of that one constraint that they do have. As we enter the period of development, we will also have that cloud computing system include the Preliminary Specifications incremental developments running in that environment. Available for the user community to have access too and verify its accuracy.

While the user community is in the process of developing the Detailed Specification this will not be a closed shop. Only user community members will have read/write access to the information contained within the repository. All of this information will also be published on the Internet with the express intent that anyone from within the oil and gas industry can contact the individual user community member who is responsible for that area of interest. That way we expose the ideas of the user community to the greater oil and gas community and then have that communities ideas funneled back into the user community for them to determine how and when they should be used. This will continue for the remainder of time. The development of these systems will never stop. They will continue for as long as there are oil and gas reserves, and ideas.

What we have is the user community acting in the best interests of the oil and gas industry. As we state in the Preliminary Specification we are not, nor can we be, blind sleepwalking agents of whoever feeds us. The direction and appropriate position of the industry in terms of needs and wants, from whatever point of view, will be anticipated in advance by the user community, designed and developed within the software, and deployed to the service providers who support the oil and gas producers. Almost by unconscious thought. It will be in that way that the producers are always secure in the knowledge that they will have achieved the most profitable means of oil and gas operations.

The Preliminary Specification and user community provides the oil and gas producer with the most dynamic, innovative, profitable and successful means of oil and gas operations. People, Ideas & Objects Revenue Model specifies the means in which investors can participate in these user defined software developments. Users are welcome to join me here.

A New Direction

With all that is happening in the oil and gas industry. With the Preliminary Specification providing the solution to what ails the industry. With the development of the user community in its third year and growing. We are well positioned to provide this solution in a timely manner. The Preliminary Specification details “what” the software will do and “how” it will do it. Granted I am only setting out a vision of how the industry will operate when we adopt the Joint Operating Committee as the key organizational construct. What we need to do now is to make the shift in our focus to the “what” and “how” we are going to proceed with from this point. Therefore we are going to see a not so subtle shift in the message that this blog delivers. We will be talking more prospectively about the future of the project itself. How we will make this change take place.

The first thing I want to do is to reiterate our focus on the continued development of our user community. Nothing is going to happen until this community is fully developed and ready to begin the further development of the Preliminary Specification into the Detailed Specification. The user community members will be the people that put the details of what they need the system to do in order for them to do their jobs within the service provider organizations that they will eventually develop. It is these service providers that will be taking over from the current oil and gas bureaucrats and providing their services to the industry.

Virtualization is the key to our speed, agility and to our quality. The key to the success of our initiative is our user community. The need therefore is to have each member of the user community fully apprised to the details of the Preliminary Specification in its entirety. Once the Preliminary Specification is in the heads of all of the members of the user community, then there will be a base understanding of where everyone is at. Then the ability to communicate and perceive the different points of view of the many user community members will determine the appropriate directions and solutions. The outcome of this process will be the documentation that will be used by the software developers to develop the Detailed Specification and it will cover the needs of the industry, the service industry, the service providers and the dynamic, innovative, accountable and profitable oil and gas producer.

While that is going on we will be setting up the development environment necessary for the development of the software. The work will involve the establishment of a physical presence in both Houston, with a much smaller location in Calgary to deal with the Canadian aspects of the system. Then the hiring and procurement of the necessary resources to begin building the software. We will also be working with Oracle as they are fully one third of our budgeted costs. Aligning our organization to the Oracle suite of products that we will be using, and initializing those products in a run-time environment.

Once the user community is finished with writing the Detailed Specification their job will have only begun. They will then be sitting down face to face with our developers and ensuring that the full understanding of what they want and need is communicated to the developers and Oracle. No one is going to build the system for the user community like the user community can build it. Therefore this will be the critical hands on crafting of the solution. Where the rubber hits the road as they say. This will also be a time, and to some extent during the development of the Detailed Specification, where the user community will have full access to the Oracle run-time environment that we are establishing. This will consist of the Oracle 12c database, Java, Oracle Fusion Middleware and Oracle Fusion Applications environment that are the base of the People, Ideas & Objects software system. This will be accessed through Oracle’s cloud offering and will be available anywhere and at anytime. We will also be generating oil and gas related data for the users to understand the Oracle solutions. Enabling the user community to understand how the base of our system operates and what they will be building upon.

We have an exciting adventure ahead of us. As the old oil and gas industry crashes and burns the demand for our work to be completed will be strong. What we need to do is to get our heads into the Preliminary Specification and fully understand the vision of how the industry and producer needs to operate in the future. Then you must work to complete your application to join the user community and commence this process. As I indicated yesterday, things will be happening very fast in the oil and gas industry now. I think things will be happening even faster in People, Ideas & Objects.

Lowest Level of Performance Attainable

What we see in the commodity prices is the rush of the producers to generate the money they need to pay the bills and the bank. We’re as little as two weeks away from the beginning of the second quarter reports which will show us some interesting trends in the industry. I have asserted here that bureaucrats have annually taken money from shareholders and banks to fuel the business. They then never accounted for those capital and overhead costs because they sit on the balance sheet for ever it would seem. This all under the prescribed method of the SEC. However, due to poor performance we have recently seen the banks and investors cut the bureaucrats off from their sources of cash. This has eliminated these normal operating funds from the industry. The industry was never profitable these past four decades because it never recognized all of its costs. The only cash flow it had was from the banks and investors.

The 2015 fiscal year was a wholesale disaster. Many companies were forced to write their capital assets down which caused them to incur substantial losses. $18 billion here, $23 billion there, the losses were earth shattering. Many experienced losses that were larger than the amount of money that they had raised during the lifetime of the company. Now the second quarter reports will reflect their status and financial condition within the industry. I didn’t see any financings of any material volume or amount. There were a number of property sales that may have enabled some of the producers to raise some cash. But other than that we are going to see an industry, that is reputed to be profitable at $50, not generate any cash and indeed not report any profits. This quarter will show what the industry is capable of doing on a stand alone basis. In an atmosphere where prices were “robust and improving” the bureaucrats should be hustling these reports out the door as quick as they can to prove to the world that they are everything that they say they are.

I don’t think so. What we will see is that these claims of being profitable at $48 are false. Those are the costs of royalties and operations. The cost of capital and overhead also need to be included in those calculations. In addition, the consistent decades long refusal to do an appropriate accounting of the costs by stating that the capital and overhead costs are “sunk costs.” Has left a legacy of bank and bond debt and shareholders that were used to fund those capital and overhead “sunk costs” which needs to be repaid. These legacy costs on top of the actual costs of production reach almost $200 / barrel in terms of the costs and cash commitments that these bureaucrats need in order to keep the lights on and say they are profitable.

Since the late 1970’s I’ve been in the industry and at no time during this time was there ever a focus on profits. It's always been on cash flow. Included in those cash flow numbers are the investments being made by the shareholders, annually, and the debt that the company is incurring. The engineers and geologists think this is the point. They are fooled by the SEC’s ridiculous accounting methodologies that have been in place since the late 1970’s that capitalize everything that is ever spent in an oil and gas company. As a result the geologists and engineers are reporting “profits” under this scenario despite what they did, how they performed or what they spent. You can not discern the success of a producer firm based on the financial statements that it produces. Performance has never been the essential ingredient of the oil and gas producer. The phenomenal oil and gas people are indistinguishable from the idiots.

You can run an industry on this basis for apparently 35 years and things will then begin to fall apart. At least that is how long these forces have taken to cause the destruction of the oil and gas industry. We saw a trend in the late 1980’s and 1990’s where producers just continued their uncontrolled pursuit of more production in the never ending decline of oil prices. This took almost two decades to clear. Now with shale we have a permanent oversupply scenario as a result of the prolific nature of these reservoirs. In both oil and gas. The only thing that stops the bureaucrats from bringing all of that oil and all of that gas on to the marketplace at once is the limited size of the investors pocketbook. There is no production discipline. There wasn’t any discipline in the 1980’s and 1990’s and there certainly isn’t any now.

What we will see in these second quarter reports is the extent of the cash crisis. Some producers will have disposed of assets to pay the bills and keep the lights on. The extent of the cash crisis will be ferocious. There is a large intermediate that completed a $1.3 billion stock offering at the beginning of the year. And sold some properties for a good price to build their cash balances in the first quarter. I was surprised to read that they were in the market again selling some of their Canadian midstream assets. This demand for cash was always fueled by the banks and investors in the past.

The performance level in the industry is at the lowest attainable point on an industrial scale. We are talking daycare level of capabilities, not even kindergarten level. Expecting profitable operations to suddenly come from these bureaucrats is the foolish expectation that I would laugh at today. The lie that their profitable at $48 or whatever is going to be exposed as well. What I’m afraid of is that these next three to four weeks may be the most difficult for the innocent victims of the bureaucrats incompetence, the people. Payroll is due, that might be the first indication that things are not right. I’m going to call this next month oil and gas armageddon.

A Few Steps Closer

On June 29, 2016 Oracle Corporation announced that their Sparc S7 chip will be provided as part of their cloud computing offerings. This was on my wish list of things we would need from a technical point of view. Now we have that and it will be able to provide us with significant scope and scale that will make People, Ideas & Objects Preliminary Specification capable of achieving the success that we need it to be in the marketplace. This press release from Oracle will provide you with some of the details. The points regarding security would be what I would highlight. What I would also point out is that this would default us to the Solaris operating system, the Z file system and on chip database ROM. The kind of performance that we will need when we have an industry to concern ourselves with.

What is everyone waiting for? Bureaucrats have everything under control, prices are rising and the industry will be on its feet in a few short quarters. There seems to be some doubt about that. People don’t think that “things” are back to normal. No one is dancing in the streets here in Calgary, like they normally do during Stampede. It’s more of a brace yourself for impact kind of feeling. It’s not that I lust for the bad times but these make for positive news here at People, Ideas & Objects, our user community and service providers. The only way to undertake the wholesale changes that we are doing within the Preliminary Specification is on the basis of the absolute failure of the bureaucracy. They have permanently damaged the competitive structure of the industry. The producer organizations can not generate any surplus cash. If they do generate any cash they have bank, bond and shareholders obligations that were incurred over the past two decades. There is absolutely no upside for a new investor. I honestly couldn’t be happier that this project is one step closer as a result of the bureaucrats incompetence.

Never before in People, Ideas & Objects have we been this close to writing code. I can taste it. The investors in oil and gas have decided that they won’t be doing business with the current producers. Their cost structures are uncompetitive. The banks have also been advised by the Fed in the form of new guidelines on how to issue loans to oil and gas producers. The Fed was concerned with the rising level of oil & gas defaults and stated that banks need to change their methods of granting loans to now consider the ability of the producer to pay. It’s not too long that an industry can survive without the support of the investment and banking communities. The need for cash in the oil and gas industry is epic. We will see how desperate it is in the second quarter reports that will be published here in the next six weeks. There is a reason new wells are being drilled. It's a source of new cash and the drilling company doesn’t get paid for 60 - 90 days, if their really lucky.

And when it comes to providing these investors and bankers with a new industry opportunity. People, Ideas & Objects, our user community and service providers reset the competitive structure of the industry. Enabling them to invest today in the industry without the dilution from an existing producers bank and bond debt or shareholder structure. Allowing them to hold 100% of their new oil and gas properties investment title. Investors and bankers can both participate in purchasing properties and field activities. Have the current producers operate these properties for them in the short term, while we develop our system, the user community and service providers that will manage the property for them in the long term.

We are on the cusp of becoming “real.” I don’t know what will push us over but we’ll get there and soon. I would encourage you to continue to work on your user community application. It is a substantial business opportunity in this new sub-industry that we’re creating between the oil & gas and the Information Technology industries. This past year we have seen many significant developments that were necessary for People, Ideas & Objects our Preliminary Specification, the user community and service providers to come into being. Things happened quickly last year. I think that the speed at which we will be able to move from this point forward will surprise everyone. That is why it is important to get working on your application. We are in the right place at the right time. Things will be happening quickly now and promises to be an adventure for those that participate.

It's Not Collusion

I occasionally run into people who have some understanding of the Preliminary Specification and have determined that the price maker strategy amounts to collusion. I don’t know what the impetus for their thinking is but I find this frustrating. There is ten years of research in the Preliminary Specification. It took me over a year to write, and these people can come up with the conclusion that its collusion after reading the Preamble. Nonetheless the issue of whether the price maker strategy involves collusion or not can be addressed by clearly detailing why it's not. That is the purpose of this post.

The first thing we need to realize is that the oil and gas commodities exhibit characteristics that make them “price makers.” The industry operated by the bureaucrats assumes that these commodities are “price takers.” The differences are defined in the economic literature as follows.

Price maker

A price maker is a monopoly or a firm within monopolistic competition that has the power to influence the price it charges as the good it produces does not have perfect substitutes. A price maker that is a firm within monopolistic competition produces goods that are differentiated in some way from its competitors' products. This kind of price maker is also a profit-maximizer as it will increase output only as long as its marginal revenue is greater than its marginal cost, so in other words, as long as it's producing a profit.

Price taker

A price-taker is an individual or company that must accept prevailing prices in a market, lacking the market share to influence market price on its own. All economic participants are considered to be price-takers in a market of perfect competition, or one in which all companies sell an identical product, there are no barriers to entry or exit, every company has a relatively small market share, and all buyers have full information of the market. This holds true for producers and consumers of goods and services and for buyers and sellers in debt and equity markets.

Please note that marginal cost as defined by People, Ideas & Objects is taken over the long term. This perspective is consistent with the definition on Wikipedia and elsewhere that “In practice, this analysis is segregated into short and long-run cases, so that, over the longest run, all costs become marginal.” The issue that People, Ideas & Objects has with the bureaucracy is they preclude the cost of capital and overhead in all of their calculations over all perspectives. Leaving the investors to subsidize the consumers of their energy costs. Please review our Preamble for further clarification.

People, Ideas & Objects sees the oil and gas commodities as price makers in the following manner. You can’t put a petrochemical plant next to a hydro dam. You can’t lubricate your engine with electricity. You can’t carry nuclear power in a bucket or fuel your car with coal. Oil and gas have monopolistic competition in that it does not have substitutes. Water is a price taker.

In terms of price maker and the method that our decentralized production model works is that only oil and gas production that is profitable is produced. Those properties that are unable to produce profitably at the current commodity prices are shut-in until the commodity prices rise, or innovations increase the reserves, lower the costs or increase production. The important point that has to be made. And the point the people that I mentioned at the beginning of this post don’t seem to understand. Is People, Ideas & Objects price maker strategy is based on the individual decisions of each of the producers, based on an actual, factual accounting of the properties profitability. If that is collusion than the entire capitalist system is.

The definition of collusion is provided by Wikipedia. “In the study of economics and market competition, collusion takes place within an industry when rival companies cooperate for their mutual benefit. Collusion most often takes place within the market structure of oligopoly, where the decision of a few firms to collude can significantly impact the market as a whole. Cartels are a special case of explicit collusion. Collusion which is overt, on the other hand, is known as tacit collusion, and is legal.” All firms will be making the decisions of whether or not to produce at each and every property that they own. Those decisions will be made on the factual, actual accounting that provides the information for that decision. The decision is to make a profit, or if the property is shut-in to incur a null operation. The decision to avoid a loss of financial resources as a result of producing the property at a price that does not cover the marginal costs, in the long term perspective of marginal costs, is a rational business decision, not collusion.

To avoid collusion bureaucrats would have us believe that they are operating the industry within the law today. Losses of catastrophic proportions displacing the financial resources of each and every producer over the long term is normal business for the bureaucrat. To establish their cost structures and legacy commitments of shareholder distributions, bank and bond debt payments that push them outside of any viable future oil and gas price scenario is considered reasonable for the oil and gas bureaucrat, as long as they don’t collude.

What people need to do is to begin reading and thinking about what it is the oil and gas producers are doing. We see the prices starting to motivate some producers to move back into the field for more drilling. We will most certainly test the lows in both of the commodities in a very short period of time. Shale is the issue. The reserves are prolific and the deliverability will overwhelm the market if there is no production discipline within the industry. The only way that production discipline is going to come about is through the adoption of the Preliminary Specification our decentralized production model, based on the price maker strategy.

Recipe for Disaster

While I was away I noted that the news was interesting from a number of different points of view. First the U.S. now has the largest proven oil reserves in the world. Shale is prolific in terms of its deliverability and the reserves that are held. This is significant news that should put the idea of energy independence in the minds of the energy producers and politicians. Natural gas reserves have been as substantial for many years due to the initial focus on natural gas in the shale areas. There is only one way in which the industry will enable the North American continent to be energy independent. That is if it's profitable and it is efficient. The continent produces all of its own gas, the need to substantially increase our oil production will not occur from the current base of the industry's structure. The only way in which the industry will attain full energy independence is to adopt the Preliminary Specification with its decentralized production model and price maker strategy.

The second interesting piece of news is that with the moderate increase in oil prices over the past six months. Shale drillers are back drilling again. It’s what they do. They can’t, won’t and will not ever change. The need for cash when the investors and banks have cut you off is at a critical stage. And the only source of cash for the bureaucrats is production. That we have detailed that producers costs and commitments total over $200 / barrel is not the issue. Once again those are “sunk costs.” What we will see as a result of the recent increases in both oil and natural gas prices is a rush of new production that will cause prices to fall back to their lows.

The market psychology will not be favourable for the bureaucrats when that happens. They have little credibility now and if they destroy the prices again then they will have provided the ammunition for their removal from the scene. Those that can, will be looking for alternatives to remove the bureaucracy and find something that’ll work. Something like People, Ideas & Objects Preliminary Specification, our user community and service providers. Did anyone else note that the Saudi’s were keen to note that they were no longer employing their “strategy” that had the effect of “depressing prices.” I think they said that because they don’t like being accused of being the ones responsible for low oil prices. The Saudi’s have now removed themselves from the marketplace as a variable that might lead to lower prices. And that if lower prices were to occur in the future, then the only culprit would be the North American shale based producers.

Natural gas prices have also increased to almost $3.00 on the basis of higher electricity demand. It is believed that current record storage volumes will be mitigated as soon as the winter season, leaving natural gas prices to resume somewhat normal pricing dynamics. This is what passes for rational thinking in the bureaucrats minds. It’s hot outside, demand must be high, all our problems are solved. The issue of overproduction has not been addressed. A method of production discipline has not been instituted in the industry, shale deliverability and reserves continue to grow substantially, nor have any of the investors or bankers demand for cash been addressed. But yes it certainly is hot.

These new U.S. oil reserves, in combination with the natural gas reserves, will never be produced profitably in the hands of these bureaucrats. They don’t care! They are entitled and will continue to operate the industry as they see fit. No one is going to remove them from the scene. Certainly no bank is going to be able to take over the administration of an oil and gas firm because of a loans poor performance. And certainly no bank is going to be able to handle the entire industries administration on that basis. The investors may be gone but the proceeds from the sale of oil and gas will still meet payroll and really what more is there to concern one’s self with?

When we look at what society needs in terms of its energy for the next 25 years we know we will not be able to count on these people for what is required. We should best begin now to learn how to allocate and apportion the diminishing production to the various countries that it’s needed and then send out the ration coupons for the people to use. It all could’ve been so much different. Remember how when the former Soviet Union collapsed. People were all lined up at the bakery waiting for bread. No one was working because they were all hungry. It’s this kind of dismal future that always ends up at the end of an entitled bureaucracy.
