Additionally, in accordance with FAR 19.5, Set-asides for Small Business, the Government will review the information requested in this announcement to determine the type of set-aside (if any) for this requirement, should it come to fruition. The US Geological Survey (USGS) has a potential need for a suite of softwares (Brand Name or Equal), leased for one year, which can be used for those purposes in multiple projects for Eastern Energy Resource Science Center. In order to be able to assess the reserve and production capacity of conventional and unconventional reservoirs, as well as to evaluate their potential for improved oil and gas production methods, reservoir properties, storage capacity and reservoir dynamics should be known. One of the best and proven ways of evaluating oil and gas reservoir for primary and enhanced recovery and to plan reasonable reservoir management approaches for national resources is to perform pressure or rate transient analysis on well data. We are planning to use available well and other reservoir data, which exist in databases or are provided by collaborators, for reservoir analysis related to Alaska, CO2 utilization and enhanced oil recovery, and other projects related to coal seam gas. These are important projects and the ability to perform reservoir analysis using rate and pressure data significantly contributes to accuracy or predictions and assessment results. Leasing of softwares that can be used for those purposes in multiple projects in Eastern energy Resource Science Center Brand Name or Equal to IHS Markit suites RTA, WellTest, CBM and DeclinePlus are needed to be able to take full advantage of the existing data and to contribute to the specific objectives and success of multiple important projects within the center.
