Portfolio Opportunity Ranker
Assess, evaluate and rank E&P exploration assets
Overview
New from S&P Global (now a part of S&P Global Commodity Insights) and GIS-pax: Portfolio Opportunity Ranker
Use the world’s best E&P data to de-risk, quantify and evaluate the geology, commerciality and economics of prospects and yet-to-find resources across the globe.
Combine your data with 35,000 scout prospects to make better decisions on where to explore, invest or divest.
Go from…
- Unknown to Known: Identify proven basin opportunities that are worthy of exploration
- Geological to Commercial: Map global unrealized opportunities and play risks
- Complexity to Clarity: Standardize the peer-ranking and evaluation process
- Volume to Value: Unlock the potential value of your E&P portfolio
Key Features
ArcGIS Formatting
Interactive ArcGIS formatting with a transparent and editable workflow.
Volume and Value Risking
Volume and value risking for known and yet-to-discover prospects.
Identification in Map
Remaining commercial yet-to-find identification in map form.
Results Aggregation
Results aggregation by basins, countries but also license blocks.
Oil/Gas Prices
Volume and value positioning of each operator in a selected polygon for different oil/gas prices.
Global Data
Data is available globally (excluding onshore North America).
Putting a price on the unknown: determining fair valuation
The value of an oil and gas asset goes beyond the volume of hydrocarbons in place. Fair valuation incorporates volumes, risk and the value of mapped and future exploration potential in any particular area.

Calculate Yet-To-Find Volumes
Portfolio Opportunity Ranker provides an interactive global view of the world’s remaining commercial hydrocarbon volumes. Incorporate drilling costs, access to pipelines and production infrastructure, and model commodity price volatility to understand the true commercial value of yet-to-find (YTF) resources.
Portfolio Opportunity Ranker has data at the country, basin and license block level for:
- YTF volume (by hydrocarbon phase) and value
- The proportion of YTF held by each company in the area
- The gross vs. net equity for any company at each oil price
-
Determine Fair Valuation
When it is time to sell, do you know the fair price of your exploration portfolio or if you are choosing the right asset to remove from your portfolio? With its myriad of inputs and machine learning algorithms, Portfolio Opportunity Ranker helps you value the future exploration potential of an M&A target, better estimate the value of a farm-out or farm-in block, and justify portfolio relinquishments. Determine fair prices, so you don’t overpay or undersell.
-
Evaluate and Rank the World’s Yet-To-Find
Portfolio Opportunity Ranker helps companies evaluate, value and rank exploration and M&A opportunities in E&P. The platform enables companies to apply risk management beyond the known data points, in an interactive map view. Modify all key exploration and commercial inputs, recalculate the volume and value calculations, and view risking and mapping evaluations for both identified and unidentified prospects.
-
Improve Analyses with Proprietary Data
Portfolio Opportunity Ranker is delivered in a GIS database platform with software that enables you to modify all key inputs. Substitute your own prospect evaluation and commercial inputs and re-run YTF calculations to view your own portfolio within a global context. With all of your prospects in one map, you can de-risk, quantify and evaluate the geology, commerciality and economics of prospects and YTF across the globe.
